OK the older and fatter I get, the harder it is to put on the snow tires. I delayed it till today after sliding down the road. Out in the snow, cold fingers, wet pants, congratulating myself on a job well done when --- I noticed on fine print on the snow tire sidewalls "direction of rotation >" Of course, I had all of them on the wrong side of the car ! Oh well need to laugh at yourself sometime and do it again

Don't change the tires. Drive backwards.... :-)

I got a great deal on snow tires, but they melted before I got home with them.

I made a little snow man
as perfect as can be.

I longed to keep him as a pet
so took him home with me.

I made him some pajamas
and a pillow for his head.

Late that night he ran away
but first he wet the bed.

I knew a sheep herder that always mounted the directional mud grip tires backward, he explained that it was better for backing out of difficult places.

Thanks . If I can teach one thing to my grandchildren is - don't get mad and angry at yourself when you make honest mistakes. Instead of getting mad, cursing and throwing tools sit back and laugh at yourself then go ahead and do it again correctly.
