BLIZZARDS IN OCTOBER?

No, I'm not talking about the blizzards I adore, the ones at Dairy Queen, but the weather related ones. After we safely crossed into the states we made some phone calls to the dealers we are delivering the boats to. Upon contacting our first stop in Denver and advising them we would be there Thursday afternoon, the dealer promptly informed us that Denver was on blizzard watch with severe storm warnings.

Now this California girl had hardly ever seen snow, let alone experience a blizzard!
Thursday morning when we left Nebraska for Colorado we kept an alert ear out for weather reports. We even checked the internet before leaving and yes, there it was on the radar, the before mentioned storm. So onward we went, hoping for the best, but expecting the worse.   


But a funny thing happened on our way to Denver, we never saw a dark cloud, a snow flake, or a rain drop. About 90 miles out, we called the dealership for an update and were informed, yes indeed, the storm had arrived and had left leaving behind some snow but clear roadways. Entering the city we were happy to see the aforementioned clear roadways and a safe arrival at the dealership. Although it was cold, wet, and snowy, we were able to get the boat unloaded and be on our merry way.

We headed towards Laramie, Wyoming for the night with this beautiful sunset, and as the sun went down, the winds came up and Wyoming started to look dark and cold.  


  

  
But in the morning it was this glorious sunrise we were able to witness. We only had a little under 400 miles to go to Draper, Utah to drop off one more of the boats Another quick drop and we were kicked back and relaxing at a truck stop about 40 minutes away.

We will be going through Las Vegas on Saturday on our way to beautiful downtown Fresno, California to drop off the last of the boats.
