Other (Snow shoveling) 20:00 [1]
My Sunday orienteering was canceled so I opted to drive down to Richmond to visit Darcy's mom who had a business trip there for a day. It was snowing already and we had about 4 inches already. While waiting for Darcy I quickly shoveled part of the driveway. The snow was very light and fluffy.
the drive to Richmond was not pleasant. Our home road was unplowed as expected. the road out of the neighborhood was plowed. Unfortunately, things went down hill from there. The main roads were not plowed well, there was lots of traffic, and people who just can't drive in the snow. There were people going 5 miles on the highway in places where it was plowed, and people going 55 in places it wasn't. There was one lady pouring gas from a gas can into her car while in the fast lane of the highway. Another car with a donut tire on. It took us 1 hour to go the first 16 miles. Once we got past Fredericksburg the road was fine. It took over 4 hours to get there.
