1-20 Shutdown

Heading to Atlanta yesterday. Gina and I enjoyed Olive Garden at in Oxford then got on the highway. The car came to a stand still as with hundreds of others on the Georgia line. A large mass of black smoke ascended miles ahead. We sat in the car inching forward for about fifteen minutes until everything came to a complete shutdown for five hours.

Reminds me of when Vicki and I were driving back from Arkansas and were crossing the Mississippi River on the bridge that enters into Memphis. A Tractor Trailor jackknifed on the bridge and we were stuck (ON THE BRIDGE) for 4 hours. Wasn't too comforting that the bridge was moving up and down either. Ahhhh...those were the days.
