I'm hunkered down in a parking lot for a while. I decided against a hotel room because as soon as this lets up I'm going to make a run for it. Hwy is closed due to a huge accident. We have snow squalls and -31 temps. Thank goodness for heated seats, a full tank of gas and MCDonalds. lol.


I can't express how much I HATE winter.

Headed to Toronto. It didn't look bad on the weather station and Toronto is ok. Over halfway, hopefully it won't go all night. I don't know if the hotel in town will allow pets and I have my German Shepherd with me. I find my car fairly comfortable to sleep in though (have done it before)

We will. I am happy I pulled over here because it's better then being stuck on a hwy in the middle of nowhere behind a lineup of cars

Hate to hear this! That is soooo cold! You should check the hotel, tho. I travel with my aussie and usually only pay $10 extra for him in the room with me! In this weather, you may be surprised!!! Please don't wait too long. Take care of yourself!!

I was wondering too...Mother Nature sure seems to have a bad attitude this winter.

Hopefully we'll get an update soon....that is scary stuff!  I'll quit whining now about winter in Texas and my hydrants being frozen.  Prayers to the OP that all is well!
