Yesterday started out as a great day. I was a little tired-actually having to set the alarm clock again, but we had fun creating digital stories. Then we eagerly headed home. It was a nice hot day and the pool was calling! The commute started out successfully, we were making good time. We decided to take the "express" lane on 275 to save a few minutes. All of a sudden we came to a complete stop. There was a broken down car-we were not moving. There was no where to go-we were trapped between concrete barriers. Other motorists were getting out of their cars and trucks and standing in the road. We put the car in park and sat for about 40 minutes. It proved to be a successful wait time, even though we would have much rather been at home. We were able to read the assigned articles and discuss blogging. It was nice to be able to discuss the articles while the thoughts were so fresh in our minds.
