renate Posted November 19, 2008 #1 Posted November 19, 2008 I promised I let you know as soon as I heard from Alan. He is tired and worn out but he is OK. Alan was only able to drive about 250 to 300 miles a day, due to blizzard and white out conditions and more than once he had some daubts about making it. He is in Canada now, 700 miles away from Seattle. Tomorrow he will try to cross the Rockies. I guess that's no picknic either but atleast we have communication back. Thank's to all of you who gave me strenght and hope.
Snaggletooth Posted November 19, 2008 #2 Posted November 19, 2008 Glad to hear that! I did my years on the OTR circuit running the CanAm and that can be a bear in bad weather. Been watching your posts. Glad he's ok. Mike
eazyduzzit Posted November 19, 2008 #3 Posted November 19, 2008 Thank God he's OK. I've been watching your posts, and didn't know what to say. I'm glad everything is turning out alright.
pegscraper Posted November 19, 2008 #4 Posted November 19, 2008 Glad to hear he's okay. Not hearing from, and not being able to hear from, your spouse like that can really be unnerving.
mini-muffin Posted November 19, 2008 #5 Posted November 19, 2008 Glad he's ok. I'm sure your feeling like a ton of bricks are off your shoulders as well. Nothing scarier then not knowing what's happening to a loved one. Margaret
