Glad y'all made it home safely (or shortly will). I pulled into my Clifton Park (NY) driveway at 4:00, but because I have no internet there while we are primarily in Florida, had to wait until today to get most replies out. Sitting in a local Starbucks and watching the cars going through all the slop, seeing the icy wind blow... I have to say I'm happy to be leaving for Sarasota Tuesday night... If the weather here in NY permits (and from the look of things, it may not!)
