Home, brrrrrrr



We had a decent dinner, spent a pleasant night and were on the road for the last leg of our journey by 8:30 this morning.     It was cold, really cold.   Hair in your nostrils sticking together, dogs falling down when they try to p, frozen windshield washers, creaking tires sort of cold.  Oh, and the wind was blowing from the north 30-40 mph as Dave hung on to the cold steering wheel.   Not nice.



The sky was clear and blue until we got further into Pennsylvania.   The radar showed us that there was lake effect snow ahead.      Looking through the windshield, we could see it waiting for us.

At lunch time we stopped, let the dogs out, and ate our turkey sandwiches at a nice quiet picnic spot behind a McDonalds in Williamsport, PA.   Luckily we were all in the jeep, finished with our necessities when it caught us......

our lunch view

The rest of the drive through the mountains was relatively uneventful.   My driver handled the jeep masterfully and we arrived home around 4, with a fresh, hot pizza in hand.    

Tomorrow is a new day, lots to get started doing so it will be an early night for all of us.
