Two car accidents delay next post

Well, I have my pictures picked and was going to make a new post, but my time has been disrupted. We had a very fine but heavy snow falling this afternoon and evening and it made our already icy roads exceedingly slippery. Right after my son Toast Ed got off work in Anchorage, he started the drive to pick up Prickly Pear Blossom so that they could come home.

Less than a mile from her place of work, a lady slid over the center line, t-boned him and sent him into a ditch. No one was hurt, other than the fact that he now feels rather stiff. Anyway, the aftermath, coupled with a snarl of immobile traffic on the Glenn Highway, kept he and Prickly Pear Blossom from returning home for over four hours, until after 9:00 PM.

I had just taken Sunflower to work when Toast Ed called and, since Wry's parents had not come home, it was just baby and me, so I put all work aside, this blog included, until his parents arrived.

At 11:00 PM, I headed off to pick Sunflower up. As I approached the fire station, the lights that warn you to stop because fire vehicles are coming out were flashing red and I saw a fire vehicle right at the edge of the firehouse driveway, apparently about to enter the road.

I stopped. The GMC truck behind me did not - at least not until he rear-ended my Ford Taurus sedan.

So I am saving my post for later.
