I am going to a conference in Norfolk...and I could have flown and gotten a rental car. But I want to go to the cemetery in DC so I am leaving tomorrow morning..driving to DC...and then will drive to Norfolk on Monday. Pray the weather holds out. My sister in law up there said they only got 3 inches of snow so I am hoping that the roads and the area around Arlington will be clear.
