Did you go through Casper? Was the wind blowing?

LOL - yes and yes. Casper, Sheridan, Gillette, Weston, Lusk, Riverton, Chugwater, Rawlins, Lander, Rock Springs, Saratoga...

All the happening places.

So much wind. Especially fun when it's snowing, you are driving a full 14-passenger van, and you have been awake for 36 hours straight. The drifts blowing across the road start looking surreal.

I don't miss it.

I've written here before about the one day while working an inventory job across CO, NE, SD, WY, MT that I drove from Fort Morgan to Fort Collins and drove through sunny weather into fog, hail, sun, rain, fog, light snow, and sun again over about 35 miles of empty state highways.

Colorado: sunny weather punctuated by acts of god.
