Vino Travels: Day 3 on the Road

We got up pretty early and finished out trek across Colorado into Nebraska.

This time of year, Nebraska was not scenic at all. That was disappointing. There was an upside: LLAMA FARMS! I saw at least three, which was super neat.

Other attractions? Dinosaur Museums [ oh how I wanted to stop and go to one!], & Wild Turkeys [Gobble Gobble!]

We made it to Iowa which was a much quicker drive, and far more scenic with lovely snow coverings and finally made it to Minnesota about 7:30 pm Pacific Time.

Someone was sleepy



Hark! Snowfall!



The next morning, home sweet home

Vino Travels: Day 2 on the Road

Driving for over 12 hours is exhausting, but I can't complain; the Husband is doing all the driving because he doesn't approve of how I drive.

[Grumble]

This drive was scenic and lovely.  The drive through Nevada was quick, quicker through Arizona, and we stopped in Utah for a staple Western Lunch: In n Out burgers.

We stayed on the road until we reached Golden, Colorado, a full day of driving, the dogs exhausted, but so much beauty seen in driving through the states instead of flying over them.
