Sitting here watching the city camera focused on the highways. Traffic is moving smoothly in spite of the ice storm heading our way. Have 1 hour to make a decision. Do I drive into work and get stuck there by an ice storm or stay home and avoid the mess.
This past Tuesday we got 4 inches or more of snow. Newscaster said they would be putting down beet juice on the roads. First thing that comes to mind is 'wouldn't that be pretty? Turning the grey roads maroon or purple with beet juice.' I don't know what beet juice is.....the roadways are not changed in color.....would be interesting.though.
Cloud cover prevents view of the sky and the beautiful full moon up there. Chanced to see it rise in front of me on my way to work while behind the sun was going down in a fire blaze of red turning the sky clouds around it purple..... with only a phone camera couldn't quite get a pic of that to share, but the memory of it's beauty made my week......
