re: SOS on CA driving - thanks

[Tessie McMillan <tessmc@domain.elided>]

Thanks so much to those of you who sent help for me to forward to my mom. 
If I didn't respond to each of you, then I apologize; it was 
unintentional. I must have received at least a dozen responses. Bless 
your very big hearts!

You advised me against I-5, so I convinced her to head over to the coast 
road Hwy 101. She just called me from Arcada. Not only did she not 
encounter snow or rain, but there were periodic sunbreaks and going 
through the wine country on Hwy 128 was apparently very enjoyable. Even 
the doggie had a good time. &:-) I guess we'll have to save the snowy 
roads for a Quattro day. Oops! Wrong digest. &:-)

I'll share a couple of tips that came my way: From any phone in CA you can 
call CalTrans, speak the name of the Hwy and get a current road report 
(you can also check the website and type in the Hwy at 
www.dot.ca.gov/hq/roadinfo). CalTrans is (800) 427-7623. (they have an out 
of state phone number but I managed not to write it down.) Also Trip Check 
for Oregon: www.tripcheck.com is OR State Dept of Transportation, (800) 
977-6368 for current road conditions.

You guys are very very special. Thank you.

in Seattle, WA and p.s. I'm using a borrowed machine; I suspect I may have 
been the victim of a virus (it's just too much of a coincidence) although 
I haven't opened anything to my knowledge...
