Today was a long day, most of it was very windy. Fortunately it was not a head wind. The entire drive is on I15. Traffic getting out of Las Vegas was backed up as it always is. We did see an accident in which a red car had been pushed up on top of the jersey barrier and was totaled. Hopefully the people in the car survived. Traffic behind the accident was backed up for at least five miles. What a start to the day.
The route took us through the always lovely Virgin River Gorge. I was driving, so no photos of that. If you'd like, refer back to this post for photos.
We are once again at the Hampton Inn and Suites in Spanish Fork. It's a nice, if somewhat over priced place to stay. They're doing this with the roll of toilet paper now, which is adorable.
Tomorrow we are up and out for Butte, Montana where it is cold and snowing. Not looking forward to it. It's also a long travel day.
Today 47 has issued directions to Hegseth to get a nuclear reactor orbiting the moon before the end of his term. Right then. Yep, the directive involves other agencies, but it was directed to the Pentagon, in the form of Hegseth.
This was dinner. We didn't hate either one, but we didn't like them much, either.
Also when leaving Las Vegas, forego the Flying J at 93 and 40. Getting out of there and back on the freeway is a confusing bear. Ten miles south of the Flying J there is a Terribles (that's the name!) gas station that is easy on, easy off.
I will need to check your route as the gorge drive would be lovely. Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteNot to nitpick, but is a nuclear reactor orbiting the moon a Defense Department responsibility? NASA isn't DOD. Why is Hegseth in charge?
ReplyDeleteCrazy. But maybe if we proccupy them both with nuclear reactors and outer space, they will leave the world alone. It is an impossible task and cannot be accomplished in 31 months.
