5 States in 2 Days

We just arrived in Reno, NV after a long day of driving through Wyoming, Utah, and much of Nevada.  Saturday we traveled from Hays, KS, through Colorado, and on to Rock Springs, Wyoming.  A very uneventful trip.

The highlight of the drive on Saturday day was that Jim saw 100s of Pronghorn through out the entire drive and the speed limit was 80 much of the time.

It was difficult to get many pictures when your life is flashing by you at 85 mph.  Here are a few.





These are from when we stopped at a rest area in Wyoming, I think!





Today started off beautiful and cool at 51 degrees. We arrived in Utah and the scenery was amazing. We stopped at rest area that had a little trail and ground squirrels who wanted to be fed!



This one walked right up to me expecting me to feed him.  


Then as we got closer to Salt Lake City, it started hail and rain, this lasted for 5 hours.

 Notice the snow fences! Miles and miles of them.

After 10 hours of driving, which really wasn't that bad except for the rain, we made it to Reno.  A trip to the Riverwalk for a walk was our entertainment for the evening.  


Back at the hotel, Jim is camping out in the guest laundry room waiting for a washer.  Of course he is visiting with everyone in there. 

Tomorrow it is a 4 hour drive to airport to pickup Jim's cousins.  They leave Italy at about 1am our  time and will arrive here at 2:30pm our time. Hope to have time to post a few pictures tomorrow night of their arrival.
