3 rounds of emergency vehicles have passed through BBC. I see a laceration hemorrhage event but my goodness that’s quite a response. Wonder if it’s something else.

Just so you know, 38 was magical this morning! I was almost the only car going down the hill. Two very brief stops for construction but no big deal. Those guys are working their tails off on that road. Let’s hope it’s open by the summer. I never get tired of that drive. It may take a little longer but it’s so beautiful ❤️

@MrsBearendipity - A little late to answer the question about HWY 38, but I've been down a couple of times on a Friday. The flagging was only for a short distance and had minimum impact. Shouldn't be a problem!
