--that I am SO HAPPY that when emails like what is below are sent to all workers in my company, I can ignore them!



The snow is pretty...but I just got a call from Concord, NH and Rt 93 is getting very slick.

Also, from NH-DOT website at:

http://67.106.3.240/default.asp?display=roadConditions&area=NH_statewide&date=&textOnly=False

is this warning about Rt 101:

Poor Driving Conditions - New Hampshire 101
New Hampshire 101: from NH 124 to NH 12; NH 101
difficult driving conditions because of snow — for the next five hours
last updated today at 9:23 AM

Keep checking NH-DOT...they’re pretty good about updating accidents and weather.
