After I got done with work Friday afternoon, we were dead set on making our way out of Kansas and visiting Colorado. And we did. It was rough traveling the first ninety miles or so. We went straight north on the highway out of Wichita, which was tense because the road crews hadn't quite made it out of the city yet, so there was plenty of accumulation on the highway. A little bit of snow and sleet made for a fun drive, but a bit unnerving.
I feel that I am confident in my winter weather driving, but was a bit concerned while we were making the trek up. It may be because the people around me don't know how to drive when any kind of precipitation is coming down from the sky. We saw a couple of accidents, one or two semi-trucks that were jack-knifed on highway, but that was about it. Oh, and there was a section of the highway that was blocked off because of several semis that were turned, but we were detoured so we didn't get a chance to see it. *sad*
That is all, and if there are any kind of spelling or grammatical mistakes, get bent. I am on a long weekend trip and may or may not have had any kind of alcohol during this evening.
