We made it home. safely. For which we are thankful. We caught a glimpse of our reality late on Saturday evening in North Carolina. We first thought that the glare of the headlights on Interstate 95 was reflecting off sand at the side of the road - wrong ! That was S N O W !
More confirmation came in Virginia, and today I managed a few shots through the front windshield (at 120 kph/75 mph - oops, sorry) in New York state. The photo tells the story. (I'm starting to feel more in the Christmas spirit already).
Thank you all for your thoughtful comments and well wishes for our journey - they were very much appreciated. I will respond, and get back to my visits tomorrow. First, blissful sleep.

Oh, and I didn't forget about Sunset Sunday - I have this from our last evening in Florida:

Quite a contrast...watery sunset and SNOW! Merry Christmas to you and yours and I am glad you are all home safe and sound...
Haha...I was going to say "quite the contrast"...but saw that had already been taken;))
Okay...a contradiction of sorts.
So? Do you like the clear, cold, blue.....
or the mellow, yellow, warmth?
:))
MERRY CHristmas:))
Welcome to Christmas and back to Canada. I'm glad to hear that you made it home safe and sound and sheesh, you're as bad as I am driving and taking shots! But we won't tell anyone.
Beautiful sunset! Thanks for the reminder, I even have one on my p&s that I forgot I shot today, I was going to say tonight but it was only about 4:15! It's nowhere near your magnificent shot but it's a sunset nonetheless, something I haven't seen here in a long time.
Sweet dreams.
What a contrast! But it id always best at home :-D
Greetz,
Joseph

Blessings,Ruth

Looks like you are going to need those Florida reminders of sunshine and warmth for awhile.

Hello Rick, welcome home to the real weather,lol.
Beautiful shots.

Nice photo. I love how the sky in the first image interacts with the road it is just very striking.
Thank you Carolyn ! Contrast is right - brrrr ! I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and all the best for the new year!
Dawn - after 1 day back in the cold, I'm going to vote for the mellow, yellow, warmth ! A merry Christmas to you and yours too !
LOL Darlene - I couldn't have the project 365 gods mad at me for a 2nd day so I had to make some photos myself ;-) Thanks for your support (btw - I loved your sunset - so nicely frames).
Agreed, Joseph !
Thank you Ruth - I will try to be content whatever the circumstances. I hope you're doing well.
Thank you Farmchick !
I appreciate your comments Scott - thank you.
Hi Dag - the trip was uneventful (the way I like it - no bad weather other than some hard rain). I saw on your blog that you have a real Canadian winter going on there ! Enjoy - je kun er toch niks aan doen !
Ha ha - I think you're right Susan ;-)
