...what a traffic mess out on rt 93 southbound. Everyone from their ski vacations must be heading back to Boston. There'a a fire engine blocking all southbound traffic and closing the road at exit 24 Ashland. Driving from exit 20 heading north, I saw about 25 vehicles on the southbound side that had skidded off the road and down the embankment spread over 15 miles. One white Jeep CJ had all slid off, down the embankments with a trooper-cruiser nearby that would make a terrific news-photo. One f350 pickup pulling a four sno-mo trailer was all slid off and jack-knifed.Didn't see any pi or ambulances, so that's danged pretty good.

Busky's Towing-Ashland, was earning some tow truck payments today, I tell ya! Seeing a back-up like that going back for 10 miles or so is something like a one in five year event around this here area....what a happening....looked just like rt 3 heading down to Cape Cod, or something, except for the snow.

Heading north was a piece of cake, and watching all the southbounders, heading back to Mass, backed up for miles and miles, was truly a feel good moment Ha-ha-ha-hee-hee-hee! This ski season is looking good now....let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
