We live for this stuff!

Ice cold winter storms in January are made for nights in, lots of blankets and hot chocolate right?
Not if you're downtown or OTR. We live for those nights, the streets are empty and more importantly so are the restaurants we can never usually get into. All we had to do was walk a block, hop in the skywalks and then jump out next to a streetcar stop. I've heard people joke about the streetcar in the snow, but come on, humans have been using steels rail a lot longer than cars, you don't think they didn't figure this all out back in the 1800's? Right before the streetcar comes to a stop they drop sand on the rails so they have traction to stop and start back up again. But I digress, we jumped off at 12th and Vine and walked up to the Eagle, home of the best fried chicken in the world. The spoonbread tastes like sunshine so I never skip on the sides. Another bonus was there were only four people in Graeter's and no line! Unfortunately, I didn't leave enough room for dessert. Whats the grace period of their birthday ice cream?
Surprisingly Washington Park wasn't empty, it was full of dog walkers whose dogs seemed more excited about the snow than their humans did.
A lap around the park for snow pictures then we were back on a warm streetcar headed home.
