I have to say, it's wonderful to be home. I took the interstate to get there, but I HATE I-80 between Omaha and Des Moines. There is always a cross wind and there are always tons of trucks that surround my little car at 70+ mph and I don't like it!!!
So I took the long way home, I headed out through the country side on the 2 lane state highways. It's slower but shorter in distance and to my surprise only took about 15 minutes longer...and I stopped once for gas and once to go through a drive through to get some food. I can't believe the depth of the snow in the countryside. Many many places where the road has been cleared by cutting through drifts that are still taller than my car. There is now a lot of talk about flooding. It's supposed to rain this weekend. I hope it doesn't melt too fast or rain too much.
