Like Hunter S said, "Buy the ticket, take the ride." We should start a poll each year for how many vehicles go through the ice.
Disclaimer: Lest I be labeled a hypocrite, yes I drove on the ice. Here's how it went: I was showing my brother-in-law the Lakes region one winter. On one of our stops we went to Carry Beach in Wolfeboro, which serves as an entry point for drivers. It was February, REALLY cold, with a good 25-30 inch average on the Lake. We watched all the big pickups entering and exiting and decided we could live large and risk everything. We drove out, about 100 feet, and turned around. In my little Toyota RAV4.
Big men, we were!
