On the way to watch a child graduate college.

Having watched a graduation from medical school yesterday, I ache for the family.

I285 is a 6 lane highway which encircles Atlanta. 18 wheelers are forced onto 285 unless they have a delivery inside the city, so traffic was an absolute nightmare most of the day while the NTSB did an investigation and got the debris removed.

Not that there was much left to remove - the plane exploded on impact.
