Gem State

April 13
Twin Falls, ID

Yesterday morning I left home at 6 am. Sixteen hours and nearly 1000 miles later found me in Limon, CO. I had intended to camp overnight, but high winds and the chance of storms made me choose a motel instead. Today I traveled up eastern CO, across southern WY, and into southern ID. I had originally planned on taking my time and spending four days driving out and doing some sightseeing along the way. Due to the lack of sights to see in Kansas, and the chance for snow this weekend in the mountain passes I decided to keep pushing on. I did drive through some snow showers on the high plains of WY, and saw a lightning flash as well...thundersnow. And yes Katelyn, there might have even been some gropple mixed in with the precipitation! Tomorrow evening I should arrive at The Brick House farm in Spokane, WA, where a soft, warm bed awaits me in the bunkhouse.
