Off to WV again...

I might not be leaving until Tuesday, though. There is a Northeaster setting up to hit Saturday night, they are talking 8-14 inches, possible blizzard conditions and periods of up to three inches of snow an hour.

Where it tracks will determine how much we get. If we get a lot, I'll give it the extra day so roads can get plowed etc. Then I'm off!

Supposedly, my DSL is on, so I may only be off for the actual drive, which would be nice ;)

I'll be there for at least a couple of days and I'll be headed back with a trailer. I'm getting the hitch for it installed on Saturday afternoon. If my son is indeed going to come with us, he will be coming back with me on that trip, meaning we'll bring the first few cats with us since he'll be there for them.

I'm getting tired just thinking about it....

It's what's for dinner

Found this on the Patrick O'Brian list:

West Virginia motorists who run down the odd critter can legally take it home for dinner under a law passed by the Legislature in 1998. The bill lets drivers keep their road kill provided they report it to conservation or police officers within 12 hours. The measure became law when Governor Cecil Underwood declined to veto it by a Thursday deadline. Proponents said if drivers can be encouraged to eat their road kill, the state could save money it now pays state Division of Highways workers to remove the dead animals.
