13. It's been snowing, mostly lightly, all day.

I'm guessing three or so inches accumulation at this point.

I'm guessing they won't be driving through the Raton Pass, which if it's not actually closed right now, probably isn't good to drive through.

I do wonder at people who insist on taking trips these days. Saying you're tired of being home is total bullshit. How about people in Europe during WWII? They didn't take vacation trips for about six years, and somehow made it through. The essential and underlying problem is that people consistently focus on the negative ("OMG! I'm stuck at home! I can't stand it!&quot rather than the positive ("Guess I'll finally learn to knit, or clean out the closets, or read War and Peace to my kids&quot . It's up to us how we respond to things. It's not up to the world to make everything wonderful.
