Default PLEASE STAY OFF THE ROADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been out all morning doing hospital and emergency personel transports. Unless you have a four drive vehicle (pickup, jeep, SUV,) please stay home. I realize our cars are AWD and quite capable, but there are way too many people out there, and snow that is too deep, who don't know what they are doing and don't know how to drive. My Dakota has been stck twice today, at one point I was so stuck, a City of Denver plow got stuck trying to get me out. When I started doing transports at 4am, DPD & CSP were turning people back from many of the roads.

Unless you absolutely have to, just stay home and enjoy the scenery, or enjoy the relaxation.
PLEASE

Default agreed. I am still waiting to see if there is someone available to pick me up for work at

Children's Hospital. So far, no one in the area. Children's Hospital does have the National Guard picking up more local people to work extra shifts....but because I live far enough away, they are not wanting to come all the way down to South Parker

Looks like I am staying home one more night.

Thanks for making the runs to the hospital for people, I think that is great and it is a big help to hospital staff...and mostly to the patients that are there.

Default I got my expedition stuck in my street.

had to shovel it out.
When I opened the door to get out the snow was higher than the bottom of the door and I moved snow.
No way I would think about taking the Audi out in this....

Default Boulder's pretty passable....

...good to see someone else doing transports. I drove a nurse up to Longmont just now, and I was still doing 50 on the diagonal hwy. Not so bad.

Default I've always believed boulder to be very good about cleaning up their streets

Boulder, and their hippies, for the win!
