Well the joys of an ice storm at 2am in Baltimore!
Becky's truck was coated with over half an inch of very very solid ice, and of course, I had no gloves, we only had one scraper, so I used the bottom of a bottle of sunscreen I found in her car door, and we hacked at speedily accumulating sheet ice for ages, we could hardly stand up and the 75 miles or so home seemed a long long way and very scary, the rain was pouring out of the sky and freezing to everything. We wondered about a hotel, but, thought we should see how it was on the roads first, so at 2.50am we got on the road home with fingers crossed.
