Today’s forecast for Minneapolis is “wintery mix” — is that a word? Wintery? It sounds so cheerful: Let’s gather around the fire to tell fond stories and share some eggnog & wintery mix.

In actuality, it’s all forms of winter precipitation: snow, sleet and rain. A slushy mess that is almost impossible to drive on — for everyone else, I have a jeep. So I’m dashing off my post for the day before my sister and I head north to Grand Rapids to visit Grandma. Hopefully it will be over the river and through the woods, not through the river and into the woods.

So if you don’t see a post from me tomorrow, send out the dogs.
