Snow = We Don't Need No Education

There has been no school this week due to the snow and ice in Portland. I drove to work on Sunday and everything was fine, though cold. During briefing, it began snowing. It has been on and off snow ever since then. With the freezing temps, the roads have been perilous. I'm not a fan of snow, as many of you already know. I had to have chains put on my patrol car on Sunday. I ran around, going from crash to crash, until it got really, really old. Cars are so well-built now that I didn't see any serious injuries. I worked "the road" Monday and Tuesday, as well, assisting several more people who had crashed into cars, other stationary objects, power poles, etc. I was glad that I had training scheduled for Wednesday. A reprieve from crashes!

There has been no school for Curtis or Andreas all week due to the snowy and icy roads. They have had a blast playing in the snow, sledding, and building a snowman.
