Waiting for our company's plane to arrive @ OAK so the distribution truck can re-load and transport to Sacramento.
Now, instead of being done before Noon, It's looking like 2:00 pm or so.
I hate driving in afternoob traffic.

Dammit JIM !:brokenheart:

Yep, coming over the Altimont was a treat this morning.

Holy sh!t. I drove around Albany/El Cerrito last night around 10pm and my gf was freaking out. I drove home to SJ at 1am and 90% of my trip was in dense fog. I was a little scared especially when passing the semis and having to deal with construction on the 880. They had extra CHP units out with their lights on so you could see the construction going on so that helped, but overall it was still poor visibility.

Noobs. Back when I was taking night classes, I'd drive around in the fog after 10 pm. Good times. Fog delay is such BS, wear some god damn thermogoggles and throw some emergency flares on the run way.

I love the fog, but we didn't have anything special down in Santa Cruz last night. I heard from some co-workers that it was pretty heavy, though. We have our own weather systems down there, even though it's only a few dozen miles away.
