We got up at 3:00 in the morning only to find the car doors had frozen shut, and the windshield washers had literally frozen to the windshield. We managed to get all the doors but one open, and started the car to defrost the front window. The last door opened finally after we had plenty warmed up the car. We never had that happen before. We dropped Scott off at the airport a little after 4:00 am to be sure he had plenty of time to get through security, especially since it was a last minute flight.
Scott flew out on the first flight Tuesday morning to go see his dad bright and early on the 6:00 flight. The plane had ice on it, and the airport (being California and all) had no de-icing equipment. The plane was delayed an hour, and then because of that the airline missed his connected flight at 10:20 am in Salt Lake and had to rebook him on the next available flight at 2:00 pm. The end of all this was an extremely tired Scott who finally got in at 7:18 pm to Indiana instead of 3:50 pm as scheduled.
