CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides," remained open for free public tours. At 210 years-old, USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world, manned by 67 active-duty United States Sailors and visited by nearly half a million visitors annually.

MIne was not so fun...heavy rain in the dark...hard to find the white lines for driving. It rainied most of the night and all morning. Glad it wasn’t snowing....it would have really been bad.

Today's commutes were not too bad - one hour in each direction. I've been under the weather the last couple of days - felt better today than I did yesterday. I'll be hitting the hay early this evening.
