Never Travel on Memorial Day....

Vermont to upstate New York used to be 2 1/2 hours until the Crown Point Bridge closed.  Now it's supposed to be 4 hours...but if one encounters both holiday traffic and a major bicycle race en route, it actually turns out to take 6 hours.  The rest of the way home was a comparatively modest 3 hours. 

Note to self: do not stop helpful pharmaceuticals right before a stressful intergenerational weekend involving extensive car travel...not even for stomach flu.  Or else don't travel with a stomach flu.

You know that point where yelling turns to screaming?  Yeah, well, so do my kids, now.

How many hours until I can go back to work?
