the kind of little/big snow storm
the date was january 19th, the place raleigh, nc. about one half (and yes i said one half) to maybe an inch of snow fell from the hours of 1130am until 130pm. so our great city decides to let kids out of school, and businesses decide to send people home from work and everyone in raleigh (even the 98% of which have no clue how to drive in snow) decides to hit the roads, and leave no room for the salt trucks. long story short over 1000 reported accidents, over 3000 kids have to spend the night at school, and by my estimates over 2.3 billion cars are out and about/stuck in traffic. thankfully bekah and myself (thanks to our amazing driving skills) were able to make it home safely, but it did take a couple of hours, rather then 10 min. i heard stories of people being in traffic for 10 hours to get home...needless to say at was a crazy/funny/frustrating day in raleigh.

Jon/Bekah. Glad to hear you can still drive in the snow! Today we are getting 6 to 8 inches and people are still out driving around. I decided to stay in and watch the news. Only a few accidents and two commuter planes slide off the runway. Take care.
