~~~~HOLY SNAPPING WHITEOUTS!!!!

Today of all days I forgot to check the weather radar before leaving for town.

I have a remote start for my car and I often just start up the car get coat and boots on grab my workout bag and off I go.
Well, I did just that and there wasn't any snow on the car so everything was good until I headed down my street (it's really a lane) and I spotted the whiteouts around the airport which happens every now and then but then the entire Airport road was a whiteout.

I can hear you saying so why didn't a turn around happen?
You see I had committed to doing the warm up at the Y and a package was waiting for me at the Post Office and I needed gas....anyway often the whiteouts just stop which did happen part way down Airport Rd. but then everything went WHITE!

YIKES!!! Now at this point I realized that I was at Hwy. 21 and there was a break in the snow so ....some of you know my pioneer spirit....I thought just go for it which I did with "flashers" going on my car till I got to town all safe and sound.

In town things were not as bad as out in the country and I did find out that the school buses were cancelled from the Postal Person. The town was somewhat quiet....duh....snow squalls.

Mission accomplished....got the parcel, had a workout and got fueled up!

The squalls continued all day till late afternoon then the sun came out.
It was another wild ride home and of course Hwy.21 is closed passed Airport Rd.
I made it home just fine and now with sharper driving skills...

Gee, I love winter and the challenges it presents......


Till next time....
