winter travel

Sunday, I got up insanely early for my flight out of Boston, which took off without trouble and arrived in Denver on time. I had a bunch of time to kill there, and then my flight from there to Jackson Hole was delayed without explanation for about 15 minutes -- no big deal, really! But on the plane, they told us that our flight had almost been canceled due to snow in JH. Evidently, our flight snuck in during a very short window when it could land, and flights both earlier and later in the day didn't make it, so I felt like I got away with something!

That storm dropped about a foot of snow, all told.

Yesterday was grey, but not so stormy, which is nice, because today, I'm hopping in the car for the first leg of this trip:

Fingers crossed that the weather will all cooperate for ALL my travel this visit!

Ooh, that looks like a really cool trip!!

I hope your trip is safe in the important ways, and edgy in the fun ways.

I had a trip with several bits of good luck just like that one. It really did make me appreciate my trip all the more. I hope your trip is great. Why are you driving through the Rockies in late December?

Drive safely and avoid the idiots.

I've done most of that trip in various segments at one point or another; it's all lovely. I hope you're going to do some skiing too.

That looks some combination of fun and insane. In other words, perfect!
