Snowed In!


By Tim and Natasha

Well, the original plan was for us to fly out on Fri 5th, but our flight was cancelled due to a massive snowstorm that hit the US and started just hours before our flight was scheduled to take off. They bumped us to the same flight on the following day.. but that one was also cancelled!

We got around 20 or so inches here, but apparently they got around 32” (just under 3 feet) south of here - where 3 of the 4 airports we can fly out of are located. So even if we wanted to, we couldn’t leave before tonight’s flight. We’re hoping that our new flight out of another airport doesn’t get cancelled as well as we need to get back to London, pick up our Landy and head north for Scotland on our “test drive”.

In the meantime we’ve been able to spend more time with our family, see more people at Mt Zion, get some more shopping done and just have fun in the snow. Tim and his dad spent the largest part of the day yesterday clearing out the driveway and church parking lot. And although under the weather, Natasha was able to go outside and play in the snow for a bit as well.

Hopefully we’ll be on our flight tonight to get back to London to start the Landy packing and final planning for this epic adventure!
