So, yesterday at 8:30am PST Ben and I left Long Beach for our drive to Slippery Rock PA. We are currently in a Wendy's in Amarillo, TX at 1:42pm central time... so 11:42am back in Long Beach. We had a five hour stopover in Lake Havasu, AZ to visit Ben's aunt but other than that we are making great time and plan to be in PA on Friday. Driving straight through, switching off driving. Might sleep awhile at a family friend's in Joplin tonight.
The cats finally got used to the car... when it was my turn to drive instead of sleep. As a result, I have had about 20 minutes of sleep in the last 28 hours, and I have been driving since we left Albuquerque at 6:30am MST... a fun experience to say the least. On the plus side, we outran the massive storm hitting the southwest just before it was my turn to drive, which is nice. Cold as hell though, but I am doing well. Wish me luck on the next leg of the trip, I am going to go nap now. |

Best of luck, Elara!
Right now it's blue skies in the LB area with the sun shining, but I'm sure it's just a trap to trick us out of the house and get drenched once more. Like I've said, drive safe. Glad to hear you've made it to Texas already. It was raining throughout Nevada and Arizona last weekend. I imagine Flagstaff was snowy. It was a month ago. And, yeah, there goes the rain again... yep, I knew it was a trap. So... seen anything cool? |

Lots of cows, strange billboards, stuff like that. We just hit Indianapolis, it is almost 8pm here and I have been driving for eleven hours. It was sleeting in Flagstaff when we went through... weather has been cloudy since New Mexico but no rain or snow. There is old snow here in Indiana but I don't think we have a chance of hitting actual snowfall until Pennsylvania. Looks like we will be getting there around midnight, then the battle of cats vs poodle will begin. Bets? | |||

We got in around 3:30am est after a few stops (white castle and sheetz). There were some flurries once we hit Pennsylvania but no actual snowfall. Lots on the ground though.
So far I am unsure who is winning the battle. Teddy is a much nicer dog now and is very friendly and curious... and the cats are... well... dogphobic and cowards. They have bent a curtain rod and broke a set of blinds running from the dog. We have kept them in a closed room since then. Oh boy. |

You must have just missed the snow storm. Hahahaha.
It was pretty bad. I got fired from my paper delivery job because of it In any case, WELCOME TO PENNSYLVANIA!!! By the way, New Jersey drivers suck. Watch out for them |

Ironically the only bad drivers I have seen so far have had Pennsylvania plates... no idea how to drive in a mall parking lot apparently. Snowstorm didn't get this far west, though there was a good one here before we got out here. Only some light snow since then but below freezing temps. Looking forward to the warmer weather this weekend so I can go get the dirt washed off my car. | |||

Just curious if you got hit by the snowstorm last night, Elara. I think we got about eight inches over here. (Last edited by Phoenixocracy on 01-12-11 10:56 AM) |

Yeah, but not as bad... it is supposed to snow through Sunday here last I checked. Not sure how much we go last night, I think around 6 in. | |||

That's not too bad. The snow already stopped over here. Makes business slow as hell when I'm at work | |||

I hate snow.
And I hate other drivers. Stupid PA. And stupid Pens. |

Yeah... drivers are interesting. I dislike shoveling snow, but I still think it looks pretty. Finally got some snow boots so I think my relation with it shall improve.
Pens rule! |

NEVAAR!
Seriously, I live near Pittsburgh now... do you know how quickly I would be lynched if I didn't support the Pens? I can't even talk about liking the Kings or the Sharks. I am just glad that I have never liked football. |
