 Just got home from a very hectic weekend.  Springvale scheduled up the entire Sabbath from Fri. night through Sabbath evening at midnight, Sarah was involved in worship both days so we needed to be there.  Travel home was the worst, route 80 shut down before State college at Clearfield.  We waited an hour with little gas when a guy got smart and said for every one to move backwards enough so that we all could squeeze by a tractor trailer and drive on the burm to get to the Clearfield exit ramp.  We slid several times all over the road, we saw numerous  people in the ditch, I begged him to stop for the night but he wouldn't.  After driving in blinding snow for about an hour at about 30-25 miles an hour and passing up many gas stations we again got stranded on a remote mountain on 322 that was shut down.  After an hour of waiting Bruce turned around and traveled many miles to find a gas station only to go back to the same place that was shut down on 322 and wait again.  He actually fell asleep while waiting and he awoke when he started to hear motors starting up.  We got home at 6:30 this morning. Thank the Lord we made it home safely!
