Snowed In in Norway

I finally made it back on line. It wasn't easy. As I told you they closed the library in Casco ten minutes after I got there on Tuesday. It hasn't stopped snowing for three days. Mr. Bean, our plowman, came by at 3:45 this morning to plow us out, but it has continued to snow lightly all day.

I got the car out today and on my way here, not 1/4 mile up the road I realized one of my rear tires was flat. I went back in the house and called AAA. They came an hour later and put the donut on the wheel so I set off again. As I neared the first corner after leaving my driveway, I almost ran into the tow truck that had come to my rescue. His truck slid off the road sideways into a banking, partially blocking the road.

At that point, I began to wonder if some sinister force wasn't being used against me to keep me from my objective.

I did make it into South Paris where my tire is being fixed. I'm writing you from the library in Norway, the town next door. I'll be leaving shortly to go back to the Ford dealership to have the placed back on the car...phew!!!

I wanted to let you know that I'm planning to be in the lab on Saturday. If any of you are uncomfortable with the idea of doing the virtual class from your home, you can come in and stay as long as you like. The option is yours!

I'll be there very early, just because I'm a morning person and I like to get organized for you guys before you get there. At any rate you don't have to show up in my office till 9:00 AM. I'll be in there early, but you needn't be.
