Ok with the huge blizzard/cold front thing that happened and everyone in the Midwest was complaining about how shitty it was but like however shitty it was there had Iowa was probably worse. They had it rough. Went up there on Friday, the day after the blizzard (we were originally gonna go there on Thursday but the highway was closed) there were 12 semis and over 20 cars in the ditch, it was really windy and we were getting blown all over the road. Super cold all weekend, the warmest it got was about 2. It snowed the night before coming back, at one point on our drive back someone got absolutely fucking plowed by a truck after spinning out right after we drove by another wreck, there were two more in front of us that were so bad traffic was at a standstill for miles on the interstate so we took a smaller highway and it was completely covered in snow, someone slid off the road bc they took a curve too fast, overall our 6 hour trip took 8 hours. It was cool tho cause we were driving by this one guy in some kind of sudan? (Idk you know I don’t know shit about cars) which a cooler on the back so we called him cooler man and we were practically racing him all the way back but we lost cause cooler man was going like 90 and weaving through traffic like a border collie doing agility and while my dad may be an aggressive af driver he just couldn’t beat cooler man. And that’s just traveling there and back, you don’t even wanna know the crimes and general other stupid shit my grandpa did. It might not be redneck country up there but it sure is something.
