We plan on going out in a little bit after it warms up some.  I'll get some pics then provided that my camera works (it's been acting up on me).  It took Corey about 3 hours to get home last night when it usually takes 25 minutes.  He got stopped on interstate around Radford due to an accident.  Adam and a co-worker were on their way to Bluefield from Norton, driving tractor trailers, and had to stay over in Lebanon.  Luckily Adam has a friend who lives there and they stayed with him.  We have a cousin who was coming back from Daleville and he sat in traffic for 4 hours in between Ironto and Christiansburg.  I think he got home around 10ish.  There were trees down on rt 100 between Pearisburg and Dublin so 100 was closed for quite some time.  We had some friends that were trying to make it into work and off course they couldn't.  It's mostly a two lane road through there and from the pics there was no way anyone could turn around so I'm guessing they sat there for some time as well.  We had the scanner on all evening and it was one hot mess.  Kudos to all the officers, ems, firemen/women and anyone else who were out and about helping people.  I stayed at work till 4 and took my sweet time coming home.  At that time there wasn't a whole lot of people on the roads.  At least this morning we woke up to sunshine.  I don't think I've seen it since Saturday when it was 70 degrees :)  It has rained almost everyday this week and I'm talking some heaving rain.  We also had all kinds of roads in the county and surrounding counties closed due to flooding yesterday before the snow ever got here.   Praise the Lord that he has kept us all safe through this.  It is a beautiful morning!!
