Snow Day
When I woke up this morning, there was 2-3 inches of snow on the ground and Lafayette schools were on a 2 hour delay. By the time I was ready for work, it was snowing pretty heavily again. I woke Evan up and asked his advice. He said that a two hour delay was a pretty good indication of the roads. I emailed Gary, my boss, and told him I was waiting another 30minutes to make a decision, but I was definitely going to be late. He called me and said stay put. He said the roads in Indy were bad, and if I came, I would likely end up getting stuck over night in Indy.
So, I stayed put. I did what work I could from home had some lunch and ventured out with Evan to Brady Lane, only 5 minutes from home. The roads are not too icy, but I am glad I did not try to drive the hour trip to Indy. It would certainly have taken far longer than an hour. Plus, by 2pm, E91 had decided to shut at 5pm for the day and cancelled all Wednesday evening programming. I am fairly sure I would have either had to spend the night in Indy, or it would have taken me so long to get to work that by the time I got there, it would have been time to turn around and come home.
I took several pictures of the snow around noon today, but it has not stopped snowing all day. I am guessing we have accumulated a couple more inches since this morning. Anyone want to move with me to somewhere with better weather? Somewhere it does not get to less than 60 degrees F? That would be my dream!!
I hear Lebanon and Frankfort are nice this time of year….

But I love the snow and even drove to Cincy today …. however the Indy roads this morning were by far the worst. After 465 it was clear!

PS Layfette was worse than here so I wouldn’t have braved it either!
