For those keeping score at home, I used Yaktrax Walkers -- a device that clamps onto bottom of shoes for traction in ice or snow -- for first time this year to cross street & lawn of Post Falls City Hall for Leadership Post Falls presentation this AM. Worked like an absolute champ. Sorta like having studded tires for your shoes. Studs on my 4Runner. Studs on my shoes. Bring on winter. (BTW, Trish Gannon & I are on the same page with Yaktrax Walkers. She included the handy device, pictured above, in her list of tools that make living in a winter wonderland a bit easier, in her latest "Politically Incorrect" River Journal column here.)

Question: Do you have studs on your vehicles or shoes?
