Just heard on WTOP that St. Mary's schools are 2 hours delayed arrival. Sounds like someone has some wrong/old info.

Take care,

Leaving for DC from PF now...lucky us, eh??

 

[Snow Shovel]

Drove home from the airport last night. Left BWI aroun 930, got home around 1130. Rough drive. Snow was begining to cover the road. In some places, couldn't really see the road, only the tire tracks of the car in front of me. At one point, I had to slow down to below 70MPH.

 

[Kyle]

IH is wide open and on time. LL if you want it.

Main roads are OK. Lesser traveled roads, Rt. 6/225 etc., are a little worse but passable.

So how many wussed out and stayed home today?

 

[RoseRed]

No wuss here, it's my day off!

 

[Otter]

Wide open roads, hardest part of the commute to DC was getting out of my driveway. Still would have rather stayed home.

 

[cattitude]

Sorry Otter. My fault..I work for attorneys. I wish I was home too!

 

[Christy]

I'm a wuss! Would take me half the day to shovel out my driveway to get to the road!

 

[Otter]

You mean Kyle hasn't offered to take care of your driveway for ya??? Love sitting way back from the road, but when it snows..gawd....Willing to bet it would take you more than half a day to shovel that driveway...

Nope!!

I used to just bust through the snow when I had a 4WD, gas sucking, SUV , I don't think my little bitty piece of shite Escort would be up to the task.

They can I still have one gas guzzler, it's just not 4WD (I'll never make that mistake again! ) It's 4WD all the way for me!

Hey Christy, maybe you could put up a tow row from your piggy pen to the top of your driveway. When we were kids we had a huge hill in our backyard. My dad got this airline tow rope thingy from AAFB and rigged it from the top to the bottom of our hill so we could get back up the hill easier after sledding down.
