Sorry to hear it, Jim. That big 'ol storm is bearing down on us, too --
looks like it's going to be a big one. :-(

That's a LOOONG drive...

I'm sitting here watching it get darker and darker with each passing

minute.
The storm that nobody saw sneaking down from the Gulf of Alaska is going

to
bring snow as far south as Oklahoma City from Friday through Monday.

Cloud tops
are supposed to be above 10K and most of the mountain ridges between me

and the
flatlands of Kansas are going to be obscured.

I'm supposed to have to use the 4WD to get home tonight and until

Saturday.

The 182 is a nice machine, but she doesn't fly worth a damn with a few

hundred
pounds of ice tagging along for the ride. It is Baby Bronco time south to

where
I can pick up I-40 in Barstow and then along the southern-southern route

to
Kitty Hawk.

If any of you hear Gail or I on your local 2-meter repeater along I-40,

we'd
sure appreciate a call. If not on the repeater, we'll be trying 52

simplex in
the blind.

Jim & Gail
