January Snow

Boy, did we have some snow! It all came during the night (after midnight). By the time we got up there was 7 or 8" of it! It continued to snow during the day but it didn't seem to add to the total inch count. (Please note - the date of 1/4/2003 is wrong in this photo. The camera camera somehow picked that date.)

Work delayed opening until 10:00, so at 9:40 I braved the snowy roads and headed for work. My boss called when I was about a 1/4 away from work and said "We're closing for the day, turn around and go home." He didn't have to ask me twice. I was already wondering if I was being

brave or foolish.

There were perhaps a half dozen cars on the road, making me one of the few giving this a try

which didn't make me feel any better about my wisdom meter. My wheels did a good bit of spinning on the cloverleaf on ramp. I kept them spinning because I was making progress and still heading in the right direction. I breathed a sigh of relief when I made it to the highway.
