Hey one of my customers just called and said they were all abandoning ship due to heavy snows and that the Governor had closed the state. You Colorado boys OK out there?

The freeway is closed from Wyoming to New Mexico.
There's about 1.5 feet of snow outside the window and we're getting another foot or so tonight. Even the post office was closed!
So yeah, it's pretty bad here!
And to think that yesterday I was excited that I'd be able to smoke a gar outside today cause I didn't work till late...

About to go start up the cars for a few minutes and brush the couple feet of snow off of them. Maybe the missus will let me fire up one of my little Criollos while I'm out there...

ALL roads North, South, and East are closed as of this writing. I am down in Pueblo at work not able to get home since Tuesday. My wife and son are at the ranch snowed in with a blizzard still raging until noon today. We have drifts of up to 8 feet at the house, so depending on how well the son can get our road opened up with the tractor, and how soon the county gets to our roads (usually 2-3 days after something like this), I can try to go home.

DIA, the Denver airport is closed and now not projected to re-open until tomorrow morning. Approx. 150,000 travelers will not get to where they wanted to by Christmas. The USPS has cancelled all mail delivery and receipt through at least tonight.

When I was a long haul trucker, long ago, in a galaxy far away, I saw this happen more than once. They have large gates that they swing across I-25, I-70 and I-76. If the airport shuts down, the state is literally closed.

WHAT! NO CIGARS GOING THRU. :bigeyes:

Seriously Mike. I heard this from the TSA and thought of you and your family. I have friends sitting at DIA that really are facing the possiblity that they wont make it home. I know you will make it and I know your family is safe. Take care.
