....just WTF is this newsgroup coming to? An actual conversation about
fishing...well I'll be damned! I'm forced to counter that with this
story of my recent trip to Albuquerque: A two day trip turned into a
nightmare as an errant snowstorm hit the panhandle of Texas and the high
country of NM. The final 200 miles to ABQ took me 6 hrs of dodging slip-
sliding semis, cars in the ditch and people going nowhere up slight
slopes of icy interstate. Arrived in ABQ worn and frazzled, made the
delivery and spent the nite with the Air Force as another 3" of wet snow
arrived. I-40 was closed to eastbound traffic so I was forced to take a
detour of some 550 miles south to El Paso and thence across central Texas
to get home. Gas at over $2 @ gallon did nothing to ease my way home
either. Is it spring yet?
