Driving to Winter Park in a blizzard.

Still driving to Winter Park and still a blizzard. Also stopped for a pee break. It is really nice that they set porta shitters up at the top of the pass for people to use!

Yet another test of my driving abilities. Caught in an ice storm in western Utah but remained unphased! Maybe I should be a professional driver?
The start of a very long/desolate drive accross Nevada. Shit……I am still in Nevada!

Random mountain along the interstate that I ran up.
Day before I shave my beard! I am in warm weather now so there is no need for facial hair………yeeeehaw!

Day 51 = No Diet Soda
Yesterday moring I left Boulder, CO and continued my trek out west. I took the scenic non-interstate route through northwest Colorado mainly so I could do some xc-skiing at Winter Park. The skiing was great and once again I was knackered by the time I hit the road.
Evening had set in by the time I left Winter Park so the scenic road was not too scenic. I did stop in Steamboat Springs for a burrito and coffee which was tastey. Steamboat had a ton of snow and the town looked really fun with a younger crowd…….maybe I will live there one day?
I made it to Salt Lake City last night and slept in my vehicle at a rest area. I ended up freezing, got a kink in my neck, and left leg fell asleep but it was FREE and that is all that matters!
This morning after brushing my teeth and de-kinking my neck I drove accross the rest of Utah in an icey fog and then northern Nevada. I stopped at mile marker 271 (I-80) in Nevada and ran up a really steep mountain to clean the shit out of my legs and then continued on my way.
Now I am in Reno…..the “Biggest Little City in the World”……at some internet/coffee shop. There are a lot of casino’s and lights in this city……….maybe I will go throw a few nickels in the slots and see if I can hit it big? If not maybe I will go dancing? There sure are a lot of signs that say, “dancers needed” and I like to dance!
later,

PS. I got e-mail from Hollywood and found a yet another interesting quote:
“I apologise if this throws a spanner in the works”
Don’t ask me what it means!
