Out of the ice age

Out our Rock Springs window

We think we must be responsible for Rock Springs, Wyoming gaining temperatures above 0. Although windy when I took Georgia to the Mustang Corrals before leaving town (she luuvved it)... it was in the 30's. Now as we leave Twin Falls, Idaho to go to Pendleton, Oregon it is supposed to be in the mid to upper 40's all weekend with rain. Yesterday, it felt like we were in a low ceiling cabin because of the cloud cover. The mountain grandeur was capped most of the way. One thing we didn't remember from the past was the "bad air" over Ogden, Utah. You could see the "smog" and the electronic road signs said, "poor air quality... drive carefully"... I kept waiting for a glob of mucous or something to plop on our windshield. Georgia drove from Western Wyoming. Here second time behind the wheel in over a year. We grabbed a nice sunset out our window at Rock Springs, but as we pulled into Twin Falls, I think we say the best sunset I can remember. Here are some attempts (though poor) at capturing it. Remember we were driving 75 mph at dusk, so be gentle with your photographic criticism. The kids got me these great tortilla chips for Christmas and we devoured them in the car. Looking at the bags, we see that they came from the gourmet isle at Target. Guess what is right around the corner from this Hampton???? yup... we hopefully will get to reload on the way out of town.
