Patient Persistence
Patient persistence Leads to progress While others in a hurry Temporarily leap ahead Before being sidelined for their folly
The lesson could be applied To business But I'm talking about Interstate 40 And a sheet of ice.

That's not encouraging. That's the route my family is taking from Georgia to Vancouver next week. We gave up any idea of going the faster , straighter route through the high plains.
Hermit: Past experience tells me the northern route is probably the better if there is a chance of ice. Usually this time of year it is just a dry blowing snow to the north. Ice is what made the traffic crawl. The eighteen-wheelers couldn't get up the hills because they couldn't get traction. There were a few stretches that were a parking lot. There were many wrecks. Of course this time of year you never know!
Poet, I am trying to convince my daughter to just fly back to Vancouver, and then this summer her brother and her mother could drive the car out there on one of his breaks. But she wants a car, and her musical instruments, now. She and her brother get home at around Midnight on Monday,and then leave before Sun rise on Friday. I have to work all the days that week so I will only get to see them in the evenings before I go on to bed. No help for it, though.
