Spanish Fork to Butte, Montana

It was a cold and windy drive.  About half the day was a fairly stiff head wind.  Then it switched around to a tail wind.  The wind in both directions was really cold.  It snowed off and on.  It wasn't a lot of snow, and it didn't stick much.  The entire drive was, again, on I15.

Today in Tucson it was 85F and partly cloudy.

Eighteen miles south of Pocatello there is much construction going on.  They've got some very huge cranes.  I think it's bridge replacement.  They're going to be there for awhile.

The clouds in Montana were interesting.  They looked like virga and fog.  Here is the one photo that turned out half way decent.  The cloud, or fog, or what ever it is, touches the ground.  We've been here about an hour, and it's snowing sideways.

Internet is a little slow tonight.  We're at a Hampton Inn and Suites that we always stay at.


Dinner was the Chicken Tika Masala we had on Tuesday.  We like that a lot.

Tomorrow is the last day, Butte to Spokane, which is a short day.

  4. You drive through such amazing changes in scenery and climates on that trip home! That cloud is very cool. But snow -sideways or not- boo. Boo, hiss. That being said, snow here tomorrow.
