The weather report explained the record-breaking cold this Friday as a polar vortex. With the wind-chill factor, it was minus 45 degrees outside. Snow was on its way. We won’t be able to bring Suzan home this afternoon, I thought, looking sadly out the window. Our daughter had started her freshman year at Kent State University. My husband, Wayne, and I were looking forward to having her home for Christmas break. Airline flights were grounded and TV alerts flashed on every channel: Stay indoors, avoid driving. Even the 35-mile drive to Kent State would be too risky.
Wayne pulled into the driveway in our Chevy Blazer, and I went to the door. His office had obviously closed early. “Ready to go?” he shouted.
