There was no snow in Kelowna, but there was on the highway.  After the toll bridge on the way down there was quite a bit and because it was dark it was hard going.  That however was nothing compared to what we had to drive through on the way back to Vancouver.  Just around Chilliwack / Abbotsford everything went to shit weather wise.  I thought I'd gotten lucky because the mountains had been clear, but all of a sudden I couldn't see more than a foot in front of the car and the roads were sheer ice.

I was worried, and I think I sort of freaked out Lydia who is a nervous passenger at the best of times.  Still it cleared up before Langley and we made it home alive.  My car is covered in about a million inches of mud, but that's a small price to pay for safety. 

How mud is a price paid for safety I don't know, but it sounds good.

Today it snowed lightly downtown, but nothing stayed on the ground.  I'm anxious for the winter to end and the eight months of rain to begin.  When does that happen again?
