We've almost made it across Wyoming. Almost. We only went about 250 miles today as well. I woke up feeling better but still haven't eaten much in the last 24 hours. I am drinking my Starbucks now so I feel a little better. We left Cheyenne a little late waiting on me to feel better and the little bit of snow that fell to the west of us overnight to clear out. Sounded like a good plan. First was the pass before Laramie. Windy and blowing the snow across the road making icy patches. So that was slow going. Then the one between Laramie and Rawlins. Also windy and blowing snow across the road making icy patches. We only actually were snowed on for about 15 minutes but spent most of the day driving on patchy ice. Nerve wracking watching the back of that boat! The last 100 miles wasn't too bad but we were tired and there wasn't much else for another 100 miles.
The kids and dog are doing pretty good. Sam and Gabby ride in comfort, watching Nemo and Cars. Sam only gets upset when the sun is in his face, which is about 3pm when we're heading southwest. They have lots of energy in the evenings, of course. Jordan does also. She's also riding in comfort in the back of the van and her leg is better.
Gotta run out to supper. Getting tired of eating out...

Eli hates it when the sun is in his face. And it seems that no matter where we go and no matter what time we're going, the sun is in his face. No good.
I hope tomorrow is a great driving day where you get lots of miles behind you!
