Okay, we're leaving NW Indiana
Hope the road crews had a chance to plow away some of the ice we drove into last night. We've got about 175 miles more to go to get to Milwaukee. Another storm Tuesday and another Wednesday.

Uncle...

:(

2. The storms are lining up
one after the other. Be safe in your travels.

By the way, we just got here. Milwaukee streets are in bad shape. The interstates were fine.

6. We have to go to the grocery store too
We decided that gifts will wait this year. Once we get the food in the house, we don't have to leave (except for me going to work)

Lelapin has never driven in this, so now's not the time to learn.

Stay warm and stay safe. :hug:

7. Chicago was a breeze
very little traffic, clear roads and just windy conditions. :)

Milwaukee? That's another story. We got a lot more snow up here than Chicago did.

4. Lizziegrace, if you're still reading this, I'd rethink heading toward MKE
from IN this afternoon. The Chicago area is under a blizzard warning, with DANGEROUS windchills. I just think driving into this is a bad idea.

If you do, I wish you well, and hope you do all you need to to stay safe! :hug:
