Traffic? Gone!

I have two (major) options of routes to work, one that takes advantage of highways, and one that sticks to surface routes. Looking at my normal drive-to-work patterns, I usually end up taking the surface streets. My route takes me over I-93, and I make my decision based on the (perceived) movement on that road. Today? Joy - it looks like there must be a great number of people heading out for their holidays a few days early. There was absolutely no traffic. And hey - if I have to work, it's a much better start to the day to have an unfettered commute to the office.
