That's still a lotta snow!

I'm glad your husband made it home safely. What was he thinking traveling in this weather?
I know, I could just smack him! I made him call me every half hour just to make sure that he hadn't run off the road so at least I would be able to narrow down where he was. There is a stretch of countryside that has no commercial business or homes close the road for that matter! It took him about 5 hous to get home while normally it would be a 3 hour trip. He said that traffic was 35-40 mph of the Jersey turnpike and that that was clear. It wasn't until he got to that stretch of road did the conditions deteriorate and then he was the only one the road as well...go figure!

Oh and then he managed to get stuck just down the street from the house as the snow has been blowing from the winds! He got stuck in a snow drift and had to walk some 50 yards in thigh deep snow--he is 6'1"!! :eek

You'll be read for superbowl!, lol

thank goodness a friend of mine husband is going to do my driveway, that is if he can make it out. But then we have a neighbor who has a big old tractor with a bucket on the end who has done several driveways in the neighborhood this past snowy winter.
