I just said I wasn't going to post daily, but yesterday was the first snow with any accumulation in DC in 2 years, and my first time driving in snow in the DC area ever, so that feels notable. Not exactly by choice, either. We visited two friends' houses, one for lunch and one for dinner, and that could have been cancelled due to the weather, but T. had a doctor's appointment and needed me to get her there. 

On the round trip, we had two near-accidents (both of which would have been the other driver's fault, for the record) and saw a car that had had a bad accident (I don't know about injuries, but they crossed the median and hit a wall on the other side). We also had a car behind us pass us when we stopped at a red light. Only one lane in either direction, so they had to go around us and cross the double yellow line to run that light. So that's how DC-area drivers handle the snow, if you're curious. 

And today is a snow day for the kid, so that will be fun...
