Achievements unlocked in the last 24 hours:

* Winter driving: Made the usually 3-hour trek south to Roseburg in six hours. ... Took nine hours to get back.

* Chains are for wusses: The ride down was done sans-chains, as it didn't seem like anyone needed them?

* Revenge of the chains: Chain requirements were enforced (and needed) on the way back north, and... I'm sorry. Spider chains are a pain in the ass to put on. There was cursing, and blood loss involved. (Just an abraded knuckle, but it hurts, dangit.)

* Smarter than you: Watched someone ahead of me in line at one of the (many) freeway blockages decide to turn around and get off at the previous exit. ... At least, that was his plan. He got ten feet, and then got stuck in the unplowed median.

*Did you pack a sleeping bag: Spent two hours being slowly convinced that the accident up ahead wasn't going to be cleared any time soon enough to prevent having to sleep in my car.

So that was... exciting.

Eep, that sounds terrifying, I'm glad you're safe.
