| The moon making an appearance at 3:45 pm on Tuesday Jan 19th in PA |
We started the week in Chicago
in a -22 degree wind chill temperature and -3 degree temperature. We spent Monday waiting for our trailer to be
loaded. At lunch time we walked to a Jimmy Johns. The walk back was a cold one and when I got
back in the truck I just sat in my seat for several minutes not moving, just letting
the warmth of the truck thaw the small part of my face that had been exposed. Originally we were to be in Chicago on Tuesday as well, but our trailer
was needed in NJ and CT on Wednesday so we left Monday for the east coast.
On Wednesday we delivered to shops in NJ and CT then it was
off to Philly to drop off our trailer.
The winter storm was approaching and I did not want to be in the middle
of it. We were due in Schenectady ,
NY on Sunday to move Cinderella to Hershey ,
PA
On Thursday, Vince was dispatched to move another Gotta Dance trailer from Rock Tavern, NY
to CT. On Friday we moved the trailer to
CT, it was due at the shop on Monday but with the storm coming getting it there
early was a necessity. After dropping the
trailer in CT, we made a stop at a Walmart in Fishkill , NY
Friday evening, we stopped at a travel plaza about 30 miles
south of Schenectady .
Curtis, the lead driver for Cinderella
met up with us there. It was nice to have a chance that evening to catch up
with him. I so appreciated that some family and friends took the time to check
in with us on Friday to find out where we were and confirming we were safe. It was sweet of them to be worried enough to
reach out to us.
On Saturday morning the weather radar showed that the storm
was just below us, but fortunately strong winds from the north kept it from
reaching us. Load out tonight should go
smoothly due to no snow making it this far north, but getting to Hershey , PA
