The trip home from Pensacola was easy going until about 10 miles from the Wyoming border in Nebraska. We awoke at Lincoln, Nebraska to a beautiful sunny 70 degrees morning, but later that day drove into a fierce winter storm. Despite driving 55 miles in the icy and windy storm, we made it to Cheyenne safely at about 3:30 in the afternoon and checked into La Quinta Inn.
The next day was sunny, but cold, and we drove another 50 miles across icy roads from Casper to Shoshoni and then 13 miles through Wind River Canyon. By the time we reached Kirby at 4:30 that afternoon, the temperature was below zero. The next morning the sunshine did little to warm our studio pictured above with five inches of snow on everything and the mercury reading 9-below zero. Home-Sweet-Home! |
