After a good nights sleep I woke up and looked out the window to check the weather, I was expecting a cold and sunny day. What I saw was falling snow and about 5cm of the white stuff on the ground. This is NOT supposed to happen.
We spent the first hour of the trip travelling between 25 and 45mph before finally driving out of the snow. After that we picked it up to 65mph and it was plain sailing with the skies clearing and the temperature climbing to +8C.
The further south we went the cheaper fuel got, diesel was down to $2.79US/gal (.87¢ Canadian / litre or £1.11/litre) Gas (Petrol) was $1.79US/gal(.56¢ Canadian / litre or £0.71/litre). So although the $ is down,fuel is down further!
We arrived at 17:30 after 550 miles of travel, last day tomorrow should be shorter, and we gain an hour as we cross into the Central Time Zone. All camp sites are now reserved as far as New Mexico. Probably should get around to booking some stuff for the Alaska trip soon.
