Bad Roads and Good Neighbors

Alabama is covered with snow. That doesn’t happen often, and neither the highway department nor local drivers were prepared for it. Redditor bat2c posted a collection of images from roads around Birmingham at imgur. It’s not a pretty sight. But I was heartened by this sign spotted in a neighborhood off the highway. Talk about Southern hospitality!

My parents got stuck in the Atlanta jam- and what a mess. Thankfully they were close to an exit and, after 5 hours managed to get off the interstate and into a service area, got gas and then spent hours in a restaurant there...and finally were moved into a hotel last night. They told about people coming down the road with food and drinks for stranded motorists. The stuff stories are made of...but the kind of stories you'd rather not actually experience first hand. Thanks Good People of Atlanta!!

It is a nightmare down here. The roads are solid blocks of ice. Thousands stranded, countless accidents, some dead. It's sad. Thanks for sharing something positive this morning, we need it.
