Michigan+snow=…

From my mom:

School has already been called off. It’s nearly 10:30. It’s been snowing like crazy since about 3:00. White-out conditions in the country. Hard telling what the drifts will be like. We have our milk and bread :-)

Scott spun into a snow drift coming back from work in Detroit today. He is sitting at a McDonald’s at an exit and waiting for AAA which said they couldn’t get to his car until at least midnight. No idea how he will get back to his car. A fire dept. vehicle got him to the McDonald’s so he wouldn’t be stuck in the car. Linda is sitting up anxiously waiting for word from him.

State troopers are telling people to stay home. And if people are stuck in their car they are supposed to get to a safe place and sit tight rather than try to get home.

Worst storm I’ve seen since the blizzard of 1978.

Agenda for tomorrow: clear the driveway and sidewalks, go to the gym, go tanning, eat lunch, go see “No Country for Old Men”, go to yoga, eat dinner, maybe do taxes.

It’s Michigan–they’ll get the roads clear by noon. If it stops snowing.

(Scott and Linda are friends of my parents.)
