I imagine getting around a tight corner might be a little chancy! And your only brakes involve reversing the fan. I want to see the video of the tow truck driver laughing his guts out.

You know I've always thought airboats were cool, but never thought I could get much use out of one in Indiana. Apparently I was wrong, lol.

They've used everything from plywood to innertubes to air mattresses and of course sleds.
My wife and kids went to Gulf Shores, AL this week to stay in a beachfront condo with her parents. They got 5" of snow on Tuesday, apparently the first snow on the ground that that place has seen since 1973. They got the boogie boards out and were sledding down the beach. She sent me some video but I don't have a way to post it...they actually got really good distance!
She also sent me a picture of street department guys rolling around with flatbed trucks with a dude on the back shoveling salt out onto the road by hand. I had to send that to our street department guys, lol. I guess the shovel guys couldn't keep up, because she said all the roads are still closed, including I-10 and I-65. I imagine it's quite the mess.
