At a rest stop in Idaho, about half way to Ogden, Utah. Our goal is to sleep in Utah, drive to Nebraska, sleep there then hit Illinois by Sunday. Wish us luck!
NOTE FROM THE FUTURE: Idaho smelled of Onions and open Sewers in the Built up areas
The drive went well today, until mile 420 or so, with 70 miles to go.
We were driving downhill on slick graded roads when the back end started sliding out. Crap!
No matter what we did, wobble wobble, I thought that we might have a flat, so I pulled over and while cars and trucks whipped by at 70 mph+ I cranked a flashlight and prayed for the best.
All seemed well, but as we got going again it was wobble time again; I was so rattled at this point that driving was a chore.
damn, and more than an hour to go.
then we got hosed at the hotel.
tomorrow looks better, as I’ve booked the hotel and have limited the trip to 8 hours, rather than 12.
Fingers crossed we make it before 10.
This planning change extends the trip by one day.
We should be home by tuesday.
