Subject: Re: The 11 hour..... by teebee on 2018/11/12 1:26:56 Hey guys....I slept in a bit then went out to the shop to get a few things done. Rosie and I bought a turkey the other day and She got up at 5 this morning and put it in the oven then she came back to bed. We had #2 and the boys over for a warm-up for Tgiving. Then at about 2 we jumped in the pickup to take #1 GS back up to school (2 hour drive) we stopped in a town along the way and picked up another student that needed a ride back. The snow had been coming down all day, but the roads were clear. Got a little heavier as we went north, but temps stayed about the freezing point. Dropped the kids off at their dorms and didn't waste any time heading home. Everything was fine for the first 40 miles, then the roads turned white...more like frosty rather than snow packed. Went through the town where my sis lives, but decided to just keep on trucking... good thing as it continued to get worse. The roads got really slushy and slick. It got pretty dicey in some spots. The two hour drive home ended up almost 3, and I had 4 wheel drive auto on most of the way. |
