It was 58 degrees Sunday when I was driving my son back home! So we spent the better part of the day in the car. And man....lots of traffic and I somehow managed to get around 2 major tie-ups on the highway.

The worst was on the Rte 15 highway heading South...closed down! As luck would have it though...we were 1/4 mile from an exit that I could easily access to get to a parallel highway (95). We passed by @2 miles of traffic waiting to get on the closed highway. When I got to the end of my ramp - I let some of these folks who were free to turn around there, know that the highway closed down.

So I can't complain that it took us maybe 2 hours longer for the 1 1/2 trip. Especially reading here what your familiy has been through formlav! And I can't whine about the weather either! Today is sunny and mild (30's) -but tomorrow and the following few days looks like snow/rain/wind.
