2000 miles

Another milestone. You may notice that I'm wearing full-fingered gloves and that the sky looks pretty angry. This was right after I went over Hoosier Pass. The weather in Breckenridge on the north side of the pass was 70 degrees and sunny (perfect people-watching), and as soon as I came over it turned nasty. This thunderstorm was moving south at almost exactly the rate I was...just my luck. I did turn in to a coffee shop when it began to sleet. Well, it was the only time I needed my neoprene booties to keep my feet warm. They went home today, as a matter of fact! It blows my mind that as I write this I'm in Ordway where the air is so hot and dry it makes my lungs heave.
