Is that Madison, CT? Yikes! The snow hasn't let up yet, and it should have by now. The drive home is going to be icky.

Thanks, KLS. 
I heard more about the accident on the radio. They said 95 was shut down for four hours and that everyone was expected to survive. How scary, though. At the time, there was just a coating on the ground. We have another 4 inches of snow. Did you get any, KLS? I hope so.

I got a little over an inch. Almost not worth it, lol. It was kind of nice, though, to be looking out of the window all day and see it coming down. It's kind of odd that we don't have more of an accumulation seeing how it snowed all day.
I took the back road home which was probably not a good idea. It's less traveled, very windy and narrow in spots so I had a couple of white knuckle moments. But probably because I tend to be overly cautious. This is the road I had my accident on a few years back. I had the Subaru at the time and it had been doing really well on snowy roads. I think I got over confident and ended up nose down in a ditch. Very interesting experience, lol.

One of the reasons we moved from the northeast is my anxiety about driving in snowy/icy weather. This was the early '90's, so the tires and vehicles were not nearly as good as they are today.
I worry more about the other drivers because I'm super cautious in the bad weather. I always have to put on my flashers so as not to annoy other faster drivers. I get very nervous driving in the bad weather. I, too, have been in the ditch, KLS. I had a Datsun hatchback back in the day and was taking a back road to a meeting I had to cover for the newspaper I was working for. The road had a lot of slush and apparently some ice because I did a 360 in the middle of the road and ended up on the side of the road in a ditch. Very scary.
I pulled over three times, yesterday, to let cars by so that I could take my time and not worry about holding anyone up.

If we can't work out ION, have you ever been to the Shoreline Diner and Vegetarian Enclave? If it's not too far for you (it's about an hour and 20 min for me) we could meet there. They have some vegan options and a Napoleon dessert that is to die for.
