    3. I do have another snow story to tell. I was in Nurses' Training in Kansas City, MO and was supposed to go home for Christmas Vacation. I don't remember how much it snowed, but Highway 69 was completely blocked going North out of KC. They finally got one lane traffic opened on Dec.24th. I got on the Greyhound Bus in KC, MO and the drifts on both sides of 69 were as high or higher than the Greyhound Bus. We didn't have Interstate 35 in those days. How many of you remember going to KC, Mo on 69? To make a long story short, I was never so glad to see the Greyhound Depot in Leon, IA as I was that Christmas Eve. Better yet, my daddy was there to meet me and take me home to Garden Grove, IA. That was one of the best Christmas vacations I've ever had.... Oh, by the way, it was Zero degrees here at 9:30 PM according to the weather channel. Says we're supposed to be 5 degrees at 6:00 AM Friday. Don't think the temperature watches the Weather Channel here or it would know it's not supposed to be Zero now. We don't have any winds though. Ha! Jackie in the still frozen Tundra of NWKS
