Lookit! All the pretty snow!
So the snow is higher than the car, it's not like there's ever been an avalanche which fell onto passing cars or anything. Wait a minute, didn't that happened in Washington? Must think happy thoughts.
Drifting, ghostly wispies never hurt anybody.
Oh, look, it's starting to snow. I should mention that it was really easy to take pictures and drive at the same time. The camera was sitting on the seat next to me, I just turned it on and held it in one hand while I steered with the other. We were traveling about 15 mph so there was plenty of time to pay attention to the road. Besides, it's not like I was taking pictures of what was behind us. Plus, I am a woman, we can multitask like that.
Why am I reminded of the Donner party at this moment? Weird.
The Donner party never had multiple snowplows go through and plow a mile-deep path for them. Hmm, maybe we will survive this after all. I always tell OC that I'm going to eat her up with a spoon, but now with the whole Donner party thoughts that crowd my min, that idea taking on a totally new connotation.
Snowplow #8 in the 1 1/2 hours from Detroit to Sisters. Hooray!
Who am I kidding, I get to travel with her, all smiles and optimism. Cannibalism is not an option. Life is good. Oh, and we were stopped when I took this one.
We made it through - much gratitude - but I do NOT want to do that again anytime soon thankyouverymuch.

When i lived in WA and would go from Yakima to Seattle, if Snowqualmie looked like that I just fell apart, white knuckling it the whole way!

I am still waiting for spring to arrive...!
