Driving in the snow

I am off to Duluth for the weekend. I am going to celebrate DTE's birthday with her, and go to her band concert. I am pretty excited about seeing her, but not so excited about the weather across the state.

It was so so so so so wrong to wake up this morning to everything covered in snow, the wind howling and the temp in the 30's. Roads are fine so you should have a nice, safe trip!

Yeesh....did you drive through the thick of the nastiness? Hmmm....both of us on the road to see The Harlot and we got to drive in NASTY weather. Both of us on the road this weekend (different destinations) and MORE nasty weather. Hmmmm.....

(maybe it's a conspiracy)

I am *sick* of snow! I'm from UT - I understand drought and need for *more* water - but come on! It's almost May. Give it up Old Man Winter. Ok, done whining. :p Hope your trip went well (and safely). (and to answer your question: yes, I do read fairly often. You have such interesting stories!)
