By virtue of the fact that they somehow forgot to plow/salt the roads, Holmes Road is a sheet of glass, and we couldn't get any closer to work than Minor Drive (~115th Street, for those playing along at home). A lot of people weren't getting even that far, which made the "dear gods, keep moving forward!" axiom of Iowegian Driving School difficult to maintain, even for me.
So, we'll be trying again about noon, but for now - snow day!
