Weather was so bad in Idaho, that Interstate was closed and had to wait until early Thanksgiving morning to begin my trek to Utah and my son's home. Got up bright and early with about 18 inches of snow in the driveway. No problem...........I've got 4-wheel drive. Temperature is reading right
at 10 below zero.......big problem.........my diesel truck wouldn't start. Seems the block heater must
have conked out sometime in the night. Yikes!!! Will I ever get out of here??
Called my trusty mechanic, Ben, who was 45 miles away on turkey day and he came out and got
me going. Now I'm only 3 hours behind schedule. Walked into my son's home just as they were
all sitting down for dinner. Great timing!
After visiting with my "new" grand daughter who I just met for the first time at 17 mos. old and
her brother, sister, mom and dad and my younger son's family, I packed up to head out for
Arizona. Wrong.......................it snowed 14 inches overnight and roads were treacherous.
Another delay...........will I ever get there? I hate snow, I hate snow, I hate snow........
