    Then things just got progressively worse.

    Rawlins to Gillette , some of the toughest miles I’ve recalled for a while.

    @sawmill - we have a swim team.

    That looks crappy blair. Worst I've seen other than chaining up over on la veta pass Colorado was the storm up in Minnesota last week. Last night I hit a bad storm coming north in south Georgia. Glad it settled down cuz coming into it running empty the wind was wicked for the 1st couple a miles. Felt like my trailer was about to go over. Was trying to find a place to pull off to safety an it felt like the tandems came off the pavement. Bout needed a change of clothes.
