Got the 7 yr old and 10 yr old loaded up in the car. Drove to the 7 yr old's friends house, whose step Dad (they make a big deal about the distinguishment there) works for the Knox County Police Department, and the mother came out saying with a smile "Jim saw you in the driveway and was betting you didn't look at the news. Knox county schools are opening an hour late." I thanked her. Of course our schools are having a delayed opening. The roads are wet. We can't have these poor people drive in the rain!
