Phew!

It’s been ‘one of those days’ for the Relay team due to this so-called ‘snowpocalypse’.

We had to excavate one truck as well as our home delivery vehicle and make sure the pick-up locations were clear all before making the rounds to our retailers, who were also, as you can imagine, in a huff because of all the post-snow, pre-Christmas madness. We were slightly behind schedule but managed to get in all of the 20+ orders for the day and even delivered an order to one hungry family who couldn’t make it out to the pick-up spot!

The traffic and the roads are truly horrific…avoid them at all costs. Let us suffer through this mess for you. I just read on cVillain that the Virginia State Police are reporting over 3,237 crashes and 3,567 ‘disabled’ vehicles…I’m not surprised. I know that our lovely baker Shelia’s husband, from Belle Haven Farm Bakery, couldn’t make it home Friday night and she’s had her own share of trouble getting out of Scottsville. Thankfully, Shelia’s family braved the roads and pulled through today to bring us warm, fresh baked bread!

I hope all of you made it safe and sound through this mess and continue to be careful in the icy, slushy days ahead!
