Kelly in Kansas

This puts my long drive on I-40 a couple of weeks ago into perspective. Apparently a pick-up was dodging in and out of traffic in the blowing snow and caused a semi to topple over, blocking 3 lanes. The lack of visibility, not the road conditions, accelerated the pile-up to 50 to 80 vehicles. Cars even crashed into emergency vehicles.

I'm on my way to Santa Fe to evaluate a grant and to eat some great food. The drive today was uneventful. It was almost 70 degrees today for the latter part of the trip - this time of year it can be summer weather or a blizzard so I'm keeping my fingers crossed my good luck continues given that there are definite parameters for this trip.
