slushing

Since the 1970s, this was driving a car with wide tires in the centerlane after a snow storm. The centerlane was usually not plowed. This resulted in slush being sprayed into the oncoming traffic.
We went slushing in the delta last night.

I tried going slushing in a honda but the tires weren't wide enough to do any good.

Boulevard House

This definition dating from the jazz age is a house on the major street where all the action is. People living there would near fine restaurants, live music and nightclubs. Out your window you would see people wearing their sunday best as they walked down the boulevard.
Life was never better than when we lived at the boulevard house.

One thing I miss about the boulevard house is looking out the window and seeing all those people dressed to the nines.
