That was fun! Hit pretty good snow just north of Pueblo... Heidi was drivin' and we were sailin' along in that lil Chevy HHR at 'bout 80 miles an hour... right up until it started snowin'... and I took over behind the wheel...
... Well Dang... Kept movin'... the road kept gettin' a lil' worse... slushy... and then finally snow packed... the computer said our average speed was 43 mph from near Pueblo to about 10 miles from Albuquerque... a long, slow ride... havin' to 'drive' every mile on some pretty slick stuff...
Stopped for about an hour and a half to sleep in a snowy roadside rest, plugged with semis... just south of Raton, from 1:30 to 3:00am... and then started shakin' it south again...
but... we're in the Sunny south now :-)
I'll have to write a good review on that Chevy... That's a darn nice lil' Car! :-) but right now... Im nigh on to crosseyed... so I'm bound for bed! 26 hours on an hour and a half of sleep... sittin' in a car in a snowstorm... is not how to make this lil' bowlegged buster a useful companion!
Take Good Care
