Snowpocalypse in Portland!!

Wow, we sure picked a great weekend to go to Portland (okay, technically we didn't pick this weekend, but you know what I mean). The snow is falling, the wind is blowing and they're requiring chains on all the freeways throughout the city. So, no meeting up with my grandparents this morning for brunch and we're gearing up for a potentially lengthy drive home (even though it looks like the roads may be a bit better once we get over the Columbia River into Vancouver, WA).

Really, REALLY not looking forward to this. We're both easily freaked out by driving on snow these days (considering our experience with icy, snowy, windy roads a few years back, it's completely understandable).

Just take it slow. And if you can't make it home? Find a hotel and wait it out.

Good luck!

Yeesh. We're getting snow over here too. Don't envy you having to drive in those conditions. Hope you get where you're going safely. Stay warm!

Oh, my. Drive very, very carefully, sweetie. I'm sending my Guardian Angel your way to help protect. (((hugs)))

Yeah, we're here in SE and it's really been falling most of the day. I'm so shocked.

(And of course this is the weekend I come down with a nasty cold and can't go out and revel in the snow. Grrr.)
