Snowstorm 2006

We just got back from dropping off friends at Sea-Tac. On our way back, the flakes had already started coming down. We reached home. Turned the TV on. It's coming down hard at Sea-Tac. I hope our guests made it out. (They were visiting us from the suburban wastelands of Southern California, and were dying to get back there.) A lot of closures predicted for tomorrow. I suppose, as we have heard, it doesn't snow very often here, so they probably do not invest heavily in snow equipment. And when it does snow, most of the place shuts down.

Just got a text message on my cellphone. Our guests have safely made it out, with a little delay. Boy, are we glad that the snow did not cancel their flight. We had them for the entire four days of Thanksgiving, folks, ..., give us a break :)
