Vacation, the Day Early Edition

Greetings and welcome to today's random thought.

As we ready our minds for our trip to Texas we have been keeping a close eye on the weather. There is a winter storm heading toward Indiana and it is interfering with our laid out plans. Our plan was to leave early Friday morning and drive the 15 hours or so it takes all in one day. This is normally how we do it on the way down to Texas since the excitement of getting there drives us on mentally and a break overnight in a hotel is not needed. This storm that is coming though has different plans for us.

We will likely try to leave this afternoon and get as far as we can tonight. The bad stuff is coming late tonight and the farther south you go, the more likely it is to rain versus snow or sleet. So not only are we heading out early, but we are altering our route to head south quicker instead of our normal westward trek. So, Indiana weather has evened affected us on our way to Texas.

Not lost on me is the fact that this will cause us to incur an additional night's hotel bill. A hotel that we will likely not get to enjoy due to our late arrival time. I am hopeful that it has internet access so I can blog / complain about it some more later today.

Well it is time to head off to work and hope the boss lets me leave early.

Thanks for reading my Random Thoughts.

Jon
