Scary Driving

Driving a rented U-Haul truck thru a blizzard/Ice Storm from Portland, Oregon to Gig Harbor Washington.......

The whole trip was white knuckle action.....it felt kinda like a bad video game with cars and trucks periodically skidding off the road in a kinda slow-motion ballet.

The highlight of the trip was going across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge...couldn't see but a few feet in front of me but visibility was quite clear looking down

At about the half-way point on my journey across the bridge I remembered just what bridge I was crossing....my knuckles got even whiter at that point. Long story short, I made it there and back and the whole trip only took me 19 hours(normally a round trip between Portland and Gig Harbor would take about 5 - 6)
