That doesn't guarantee others will do the same. :-(
Another hurdle to get past - driving on a busy interstate during less than perfect conditions. Good for me, right?
Is it sticking to the roads much? The back roads might have some, but the freeways are usually clear unless its a really heavy snowfall. Watch those bridges, though.
Usually, if it snows, everything slows down and no one's in a hurry. Don't let anyone pressure you, go whatever speed you want.
I think it's still pretty much bare and wet.
The perky weather babe on NWCN just said "We're getting snow even though it wasn't predicted, and the winds remain gusty even though the wind advisory has expired!"
She said it like she was taking it up with God.
Good advice. I don't even look in my rear-view mirror if I'm not backing up. I figure who ever is behind me can just deal with it or blow it out their shorts.
The other day Steve pulled over into a lane of traffic and was so worried about not slowing the guy down behind him, looking at the guy in the rear-view mirror, that he almost ran into the guy in front of him!
yeah... cruised around the traffic cams.... looks OK.
Nothing much in GH or up north yet. Weatherunderground shows snow tommorrow in both GH and Bellevue though, and saturday too.
Interesting. Might get to test that Jeep in the snow after all...
Is that blue chair for you to sit in and watch your garden grow?
Yes it is! It's our Oklahoma Blood Bank chair...got it for giving so many pints of blood.
~heh~
Is this the same perky gal from last night?
Does she ever sleep?
Just go slow and careful, don't pressure anyone, let them go whatever speed they want ;~D
And that dead tree...it's not a tree at all, you know...it's the branch of that old pear tree that split a couple of years back. We just stuck it in the ground like that and we've grown stuff like cukes up it! LOL!
We like to call it a garden ornament.
Gotcha in my prayers, hon, for driving, the new job, and dealing with the boss when you ditch the current one!
Same gal ;~D
Maybe she's an animation.
Yeah, he'll get my attention if he needs me.
I'm like Steve, though - I worry about that. I've gotten MUCH better about it, but I'm always nervous about making turns because of people behind me and all.
I don't think it's that bad out there except visibility wise. But I'll still give myself extra time.
The main roads like Littlerock and Black Lake are just wet, but Trosper was pretty slushy. Looks like it's tapering off here, though.
Thanks, Suzi! I'm realllly hoping the new job comes through, though even now it's not a sure shot. And no matter how unpleasant the leave taking ends up being, it'll be in the past soon enough. But it's gonna be painful for the present.
Heh...
