the highway today

Sadly, we won't be making it to

drakkenfyre's Halloween-and-birthday party tonight. Not when the highways look like this.

I should have suspected that the weather was changing with the fierce winds we've been having. It made for the perfect atmosphere, though--last night we went on a graveyard walking tour by flashlight, put on by the Galt Museum. It was more historic stories than spooky stuff. I was afraid we wouldn't be able to hear the guide over the wind, but it turns out he's a middle school teacher by day, so his voice carried just fine. He clearly knew his stuff as far as the details go, but could have used a bit of work polishing his storytelling techniques. Still, it was a fun way to spend a Saturday night coming up on Halloween.

And the snow is still blowing and blowing out there. Ugh. The good news--neither one of us has to be anywhere before Tuesday afternoon, and if it doesn't warm up a bit by then (which I think it's supposed to) we're both close enough to walk to work.

It's the first time in about four or five years that we haven't had some sort of Halloween paty. But I will be working Halloween night, and I will be in costume! Pirate this year, I think...
