Foggy Morn!

Here's the sun as it rose this morning. We were in some pretty thick fog for a while. I was glad that I wasn't driving! Woody drove the whole way...though, it was a long day for him. We left a little before 6am central time and arrived in Fairfax, VA a little before 6pm eastern time. The last hundred miles seemed like they took forever. The drive was a bit shorter for me as I did sleep for several hundred miles along the way! We were glad to stop for the night as we know that the next 25 miles to NIH can take two to three hours during rush hour if the traffic gets backed up. We heard a traffic report about a traffic backup on one of the roads that we will be on in the morning...hopefully it will be cleared by then...but it would not have been good going for us if we had gone on into Bethesda tonight! We will leave dark and early in the morning in order to "try" to avoid the morning rush hour on the beltway. The weather was perfect for us today...in fact it was warmer than we expected. I just looked at tomorrow's forecast and they are predicting snow in the afternoon...up to an inch accumulation. All appointments that he has scheduled for tomorrow...CT and MRI...are in the morning. At the moment we are just glad to be settled into our hotel room for the night. Woody did his crossword puzzle for the day after he got here and is now reading and relaxing. He really doesn't seem any the worse for wear for our trip. He claims that sitting behind the wheel is not much different than sitting all day in the recliner...and he was accomplishing something each time the tires turned!
