home...please

* * *

just a really quick post to let you know 

that we arrived home safe and sound..

quite rattled, but safe...

many many of the vendors, 

and i imagine all the staff...

 live in the areas effected by 

the Frankenstorm

personally, we chose a path more to the west

to avoid west virginia and 2 feet of snow thru the mountains,

but it was still a tough drive.

my helper/friend suellyn 

saved the day with her awesome driving skills !!

but i had to do the last 2 hour leg all by myself

(and as those who know me, know..i do NOT do rain...or dark...and it was BOTH)

our PA turnpike was not allowing trucks, 

trailers, buses or anything other

than passenger vehicles heading east,

which made it a bit easier..

who am i kidding..

there was NOTHING easy 

about it...

it was awful !

speed limit was dropped to 45

which was totally necessary

this was my view

i actually have no circulation in my fingers...and

i will NEVER do it again..

should really have gotten a room, 

but i just so wanted to be home.

* * *

that all said...

there are many of our friends who are not yet home, 

please pray for them to be safe

and find their homes in one piece when they get there.
