Driving up to the Rockies





































Driving for hours and hours on Interstate 80, we were from this point on to California following the old California Trail from the mid 1800s. We enjoyed imagining how people walked this distance and how difficult and dusty and hot it would have been for them. We saw several wind farms and parts of the wind turbines (blades) transported on a truck, picture included. We saw pronghorn antelope and then in the middle of nowhere huge oil refineries. We don't have air conditioning in our 1994 black Toyota truck which now has 160,000 miles on it. So the "air" involved a towel in the window and sleeves on the driver's left arm. We camped in Utah and had a chilly night.
