I'm currently a cornhusker. Did you know that they mow the medians in Nebraska? That and if you want to drive a semi, it has to be red.
Liz is at the wheel, she relieved Alec at the Pony Express Station in Grotenberg about an hour ago.
Had a fantastic time getting completely drenched in a thunder/lightening storm in Denver last night. The waiter kept saying, "take your time". I had no idea there was a raging storm beyond my steak dinner. We three held hands and made a break for it, leaping puddles. Leaving Denver, a large traffic jam was the result of a "lake" below a flooded underpass. I feared for the Miata in front of us, but all was well.
So far we are spending about $100/day on gas. Only ran to fumes once, stopped in Copper Mountain Colorado just in the nick of time. Colorado gets the "beautiful state" award so far. Spectacular vistas throughout. Glenwood Springs is a re-do. Beautiful little berg alongside the Colorado river, rafting and water fun! Could have stuck around there for sure.
Counted road kill yesterday....Lizzi won. Saw (alive) big horn sheep, prarie dogs, lots of uppity fancy cows and a bob cat. Feral kittens last night at the RV camp.
Lots of technology in this car; i-pods, computer, GPS, phones and the I-touch. Blew fuses twice when the girls were doing their breathing treatments. Luckilly I bought lots of extra fuses and switched up to "30" which seems to be handling the load.
This is a great life! The trailer is proving worth its cost. It was o-dark last night when we put it up and except for one smashed finger (jack) we had it up in about 10 minutes. Pretty good for only 2nd time. Tonight, we go for the record!
Signing off for now,
MLH at the Hamilton County line in Nebraska.
