Yea this time of year it can suck. I know the snow & crap kinda messed mine up already. Couldn't afford to fly my daughter up here from KC, and had thought of meeting her mom 1/2 way and driving her up. But with all the snow and stuff decided it wasn't worth someone having an accident. Sh*t happens, and summer not that far away. Still kinda sucks, as this is the first year in 16 that my oldest hasn't got to spend xmas with dad.
Hope your trip works out ok, will keep you in my prayers.
