Snow Day~~~


Well I spent two hours on the road this am trying to get to work. Kept calling in to see if we didn't have to come in but no such luck so off I went. I was two blocks from home and saw a car in front of me spin out two times...

...road blocked by policeman...passed a fender bender...stopped to put on my chains...came to a street that was blocked by stand still traffic...turned around and was stuck on a bridge for 25 minutes...passed a van and school bus trying to put on chains... took a frontage road but turned around when I saw the traffic at a stand still...passed a car spinning its tires trying to get up a hill...passed a city bus on my side of the road facing the wrong direction- waved as I went by...

...made one last attempt at a back road and came to another street with stand still traffic...called work to say I'd made enough efforts to get there and I was heading home...on my way home had a car go by going backwards-hmmm...went for a walk with the family...took some pictures and now I'm cozy inside and enjoying the pretty white every where. Co-workers called to say they did close work after all. Too bad the decision hadn't been made earlier but since it's non-profit, closing is a hard decision. Have a great day.

Wow - your commute was AWFUL! Took me an hour to get there, only to find out that five minutes before I arrived they'd decided to delay...glad you made it back home safe!

Awesome picture collage!
