Just like I remembered it

Huck used to warn me each fall that wet leaves were slipperier than snow. There is, however, as any parent knows, a big difference between being heard and being heeded. I made it a point, whenever I could, to test his theory. I'd get on an old road covered with wet leaves and give the accelerator a kick to make the wheels spin. I'd do the same on snow. And on ice, just because.
