December 15 was challenging and frightening- I had 17 little furballs from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue in the transport van enroute to Minneapolis and hit a major ice storm in Bemidji. I got stuck on an exit ramp and could not advance forward. Car pileups were all over the freeway, but I had to walk for help.

Thankfully, I got to the O'Sullivans who were parked waiting for me and we were able to get the van and load of animals to the Animal Care Clinic and Bemidji Animal hospital for boarding overnight.

The O'Sullivans also had a load of 8 Leech Lake and Bemidji Pound animals who were supposed to ride out, but they were boarded for the night, too.

We called everyone to cancel the transport and I spent the night at the O'Sullivans hoping for better weather the next day. Althought a number of animals remained at the shelter I had fed, watered and cleaned all dog and cat areas before leaving.
