Today’s run was less than pleasant! I have never driven through so much debris for so long a time and distance! There were periods when we idled through floating tires, trees and other debris that was flushed from the east coast into the
Chesapeake Bay due to flooding. We encountered clear areas where we could precede forward a mile or two then another debris field would greet us and force us to a crawl before moving forward. We never completely got out of floating debris for the entire 66 mile trip.
