Long drive home

The kids and I journeyed up to Louisville this afternoon to get haircuts for them and a tie for Mike for Saturday night's homecoming dance. I was a little concerned, because the newspaper for the past couple of days has been all about the severe damage from Sunday's windstorm. It's really strange up there--you'll go along for several blocks and traffic lights are out and chain restaurants like MacDonalds are closed due to electrical outages. But then the next thing you know, the lights are working and stores are open and everything seems normal. Because of the places where the traffic signals are out though, traffic was pretty intense. It normally takes me an hour to get home from just about any place in Louisville; tonight it took an hour and a half.
