A HERETIC I AM

(72,300 posts)1. That is a lot of miles without a fuel stop.
Hope you carry a coffee pot.
Stay warm and safe.
A HERETIC I AM
(24,380 posts)2. Luckily I'm not in that area today
But Im headed into another segment of the storm, up in Roanoke, VA which has a winter storm watch for tonight.
I hope to get up there and out before the worst of it.
Start the trip in about a half hour from Dillon, SC, stop in Raleigh then up to Roanoke and back to Raleigh.
Finish here in Dillon about 6:00 am if all goes well.
