So tonight I was driving home, north on 35W right after I passed 694.  I was in the far left lane watching the car in front of me.  (It was snowing, the roads were slushy, and traffic was about 45 mph).  So while I’m driving and watching the car in front of me I see a car ahead of me and off to my left a little bit.

It’s coming right for me.  It spins and I see it’s side, and the back of it.  It’s coming right at me (on the other side of the road).  The next thing I know the car is hitting the wire barrier and the stakes that hold the wire are flying, not far from my car.  The car took out about four of them.  The car hit the barrier right when I was driving past.  If the barrier wasn’t there it would have been an interesting time.

So that was my fun ride home.  Otherwise it was pretty uneventful.  I stopped for gas.  My car was low on it and tomorrow the gas tax goes into effect.  So I figured now’s the time to buy!

Now I’m sitting my our white chair watching the Twins game on TV and the snow falling and blowing outside.  Just think in 2010 we could watch Opening Day in the snow in our outdoor stadium!  Rock on.
