And this is today



Okay, so two days later this is our weather. What's the deal with this place?!?! Last night the clouds blew out of town and we woke up this morning to clear blue sky and it's supposed to be in the 70's by Wed. Crazy. These pix were taken at the same places as the ones on 5/5 and you'd never know today that we even had a snow storm at all. Must have been the weather's one last Hoo-rah before the spring weather actually arrives for good. We keep telling Gennie that the baby will come in the summer . . . she's going to be really disappointed when the weather turns warm for good and he's still not here yet. Probably should have explained it to her a little better. She really can't wait to pack him up and take him to the lake . . . don't know if I'll be up for a lake trip right after he's born, and the weather turns cold again in Oct. so we'll have to see. He may have to make his board shorts debut next summer.

In one of my infamous road trips, we traveled to Greeley, CO for a May 12 wedding. Our date of travel was May 10-11. The year was 2000.

We departed Sacramento in shorts, t-shirts, and flip-flops. All was well, even into Salt Lake City, where we stopped for dinner at the Cracker Barrel.

About 40 miles east of SLC, though, snow began to fall. And it fell harder, and harder, and harder. It wasn't until past Rawlins that it finally let up. And that stretch that should have taken about 4 hours or a tad less actually took over 7 hours. We were -- to say the least -- woefully unprepared.

We got some funny looks at the gas station/truck stops when we were traipsing through the snow with shorts and sandals.
