All was fine until return, when a surprise snowstorm hit I-5 from Ashland, OR, all the way through the Siskiyous nearly to Redding, CA. Cars stranded all over the place, semis putting on chains in the middle of the highway. CHP finally shut the highway down. Good times.

It was used as proof we were entering THE COMING ICE AGE!
yup... 100%

Yeah? And what is a “naps coordinator”? Supervisor / monitor nap time at your local senior center or your grandkids daycare class?
Its going to be in the low 50’s and sunny in N Georgia. Perfect TG weather.
If there’s white powder on the ground, Hunter will think Christmas came early.
As we drove through VT, they had the state police stopping traffic on Rt 9 and if you didn’t have snow tires on your car, they were not letting you through.
We passed at least 13 (counted them) cars overturned in the ditch at the side of the road between the NY border and the other side of VT, which is NOT a wide state, and all of them had all season radials.
