I'm stuck in Gorman

JWBear · 09-12-2006, 09:55 PM

Some of my family decided to make a spur of the moment trip to Sequoia NP. I took yesterday and today off work, and Bill and I drove up in the Mini to join them. We had planned to drive back this evening.

The I5 is closed. All southbound traffic is being diverted on to the 138 towards Palmdale and the 14. We got stuck in that mess and went all of 2 miles in 1 hour and 10 minutes.... So, we turned around and found the 2nd to the last room in the only hotel in Gorman(we got here at 8:45). There is no long distance phone service out of town (but I was able to connect to earthlink via dial-up - go figure) So I don't know if the rest of my family that were headed back to OC got through, or if I'll be able to call work tomorrow morning and let them know I may not be in!
