Well, Brad and I made it up to Ottawa. I picked him up at like 5:40 from Pickering, and we headed out. However, as many of you know, going anywhere at that time is brutal.

I think some minor demons or lesser evils were trying to keep us back, but someone was on our back (I could get all Hinduistic on you here, but I wont....). Check out our journey.

Apparently the train was delayed for Brad...because some Snow removal truck was shovelling on the tracks. Or as brad put it, "there was spinich on the tracks".

Then from the Go Station, we took a side road...(bailey) all the way to Whitby/Oshawa, and jumped on the beloved 401.

Then, because of weather, we had to drive slow. I didn't know until later on in the trip that Brad was terrified, because of a past accident involving bad weather and brown guys.....but that was not me. And then because of the 'blowey' snow, the conditions were kinda bad, I think I used about 1/2 tank of Washer fluid.

Along the way, we were going slow, and then we stopped. A truck had Jack-knifed and blocked the 401 Eastbound, so we were all diverted into the town of Maitland, Prescott and another one I can't remember. It was a nice drive, but it added about 40 minutes to our tri
