Just drove home from Baltimore
No choice...the child had All-State Honors Chorus up at Morgan State University. Concert was at 4, we left there about 545 and JUST got home about 15 minutes ago. North, obviously things weren't so bad... mainly wet. However the slush started piling up big time as we got into Upper Marlboro, then got progressively worse as we headed south. Worst of all was St. Mary's County as not only the snow was pilling up and the snow pack and icy spots on the roads, but the IDIOTS who were trying to drive at nearly 50mph and pass those of us who were taking our careful time! Seriously, from the WaWa at the 5/235 split down 235 to Hollywood there were probably thirty cars in ditches; many of them the cars that blew past us as we made our way home.
In the front yard here in Hollywood is nearly 6" of snow and it is still coming down like crazy. It's beautiful though, the trees are all loaded up, every branch and needle with its own coating of white frosting...
Now that we're all home and snug (Songbird's boyfriend is also staying, no way were we letting him drive anywhere) we're going to enjoy it and the satellite tv for as as long as it lasts.
For those of you who have to be out, PLEASE be careful. And a huge "thanks" to all the folks who are plowing and salting and rescuing those who aren't as fortunate as my family is right now.
