Grandma Booze drove down to Knoxville, Tennessee, from Mequon, Wisconsin, and we are thankful that she made it safely! She drove in the "Jonas" snowstorm that hit the Southeast and headed northeast over the Jan. 23-24 weekend. Her normal 10-hour trip from Wisconsin to Tennessee turned into a 24-hour trip when she got stuck in the mountains of Mount Vernon, Kentucky where she was stopped in her car among other travelers on I-75 South for 14 hours straight!!! She had a half tank of gas, and some Chex Mix to snack on, and she only drank a Diet Coke so did not need to use the bathroom. She was first stuck in Mount Vernon, KY, at 3:30 PM and arrived at our house in Knoxville at 7:30 AM, so she finally started driving from KY to TN at around 5:00 AM. What a trooper!
