Through the Snow we go

 

These roads were solid ice and we never got over 35 mph

And then the ice got thicker and more of it.

It appears I am on the wrong side...but the other side was ice too

Sherri and I got to sleep in today...no work...we had to travel north to our next assignment and we did not want to chance the roads early in the morning. We slept in and went down around 8:30 to have coffee. The roads still looked bad but we were not planning on leaving until 12:00.

We met some of the other workers down in the breakfast room and visited for a while. Had our coffee and then returned to our rooms to watch TV and surf the net.

A little bit before noon we all gathered in the lobby to check out and line up out front in our convoy headed north. Of all ways to be going...North of all places. The weather north of here is worse. Oh well what must be must be.

The road sure enough got worse as we headed on and when all was said and done our 1 hour drive turned into a 2 hour drive. I use my 4 wheel drive and never had one problem the whole way. The roads were slick to say the least but we made it up there without any problems.

At least we had Denny's across the parking lot...can you tell it is cold

Tonight we are staying in for sure. We did walk across the parking lot to eat dinner at Denny's. The wind was unbelievable and with the temps at 18 it cut through you like a knife.

I am sure most of you out there had a much more memorable day but for us it was exciting. We have one more day and then we get to go home for a long weekend...
