Heading home???

Matt brought in coffee again this am.    What a treat!   Tho' yesterday I spilt it.  Uffta.bummer!  The snow has stopped, now we need to decide if and when we can safely drive home.   After driving to get gas, Denny decided it was a go.  We left Matt's home about 11:30 and stopped to tighten ropes on carpetball tables after driving 5 miles.  Lord, grant us safety and wisdom as we travel.  It was slow go.  and on the way to Interstate 29 the battery charge light came on.  Uffta!!  It had been on earlier this fall and Denny had taken the pickup into the shop (when he was driving to Odebolt, the light had stopped stopped), but the shop could find nothing the matter with it.  So here we were on snowpacked heavily traveled interstate.  Uffta!!  There were lots of cars on the road.  I think all the cars that had not been able to travel yesterday with the storm ... and cars that were traveling yesterday and had to stop because of road conditions.  I would look back in the mirror and there was no end to cars AND BIG trucks that barreled on full speed ahead.  For a long while we followed a car with flashers on moving 30 miles an hour on the right hand icey snow packed side of the road with BIG truck passing at record breaking speeds.  Not fun.  This is Denny's account:


We made it home about 4.  Thank you Jesus.   Unloaded the vehicle, put away trailer, chilled in sunroom.  Thankful to be home safely.
