I’m in Cheyenne, Wyoming tonight. So I’m less than a day behind my original schedule. If the weather holds, I’ll probaby be caught up in another day or two.

Speaking of weather, it was quite warm today – until I ran into a hailstorm in the west of Nebraska. I had been driving under massive dark clouds with no bad weather, but when I got to much lighter clouds and a lot more sun, the hail started falling. I stopped under an overpass to put on my jacket and decide if I needed to put my luggage into the heavy-duty plastic bags I brought for this purpose. While I was under the overpass, the hail rapidly changed to rain and became much lighter – almost as if there was one defective cloud that sprang a leak. About 50 miles further on, there was a brief period with just a few raindrops.
