14. I passed through Columbia driving my daughters back from Kirksville to St. Louis.

I stopped for gas there and it took about an hour to get off Hwy 63 for the gas. All told, it took me 12 hours to drive my daughters for what is normally a 3 hour trip. We saw 20-30 wrecked cars along the way. We couldn't get off 70E because traffic was at a complete standstill at different parts. The radio said everyone should get off the highway so responders could reach the wrecks.

It was an interesting adventure last night.
