This morning, I drove to work early, in part to give myself time, in case there were road closures, in part to fill up the car. When I left for vacation, it only had a quarter tank, and I wasn’t sure what gas stations would be open. I also wanted to get in early so I could use the shower at work, since we are still without power at home.

The drive in was uneventful. A few side streets in New Haven were closed due to downed trees and a stoplight in Middlefield was out of order. The gas stations all seemed to be open and I had no problems filling up. Now, it is time to dig out from a week of vacation.
