- There was a natural disaster in New Jersey last week! Who knew?
- It's showing as out for delivery and in at yet another facility some five hours later than I took the picture. Rather a waste of time travel.

We had a two day snow storm. Only a couple of inches in total, but it started with freezing rain that left a nasty coating of ice and was accompanied by strong wind. The major highways were closed to commercial traffic by order of the governor. There were also highway closures in Pennsylvania and New York.
Not the worst I've ever seen, but a legitimate excuse for a day's closure.
