Day 3 - Rolling Along

On Day 3 of our journey northwest we said goodbye to Kansas, did a quick cut through Colorado, and ended up in Rawlins, Wyoming. Drive time was about 7 hours. No mishaps with the slide covering today and only one broken kitchen saucer.   

Chris planned our trip to be front-end heavy on the driving to expedite our voyage out of the Texas heat. Each day we drive a little less and the weather has finally started to be a little cooler and definitely less humid. My glasses have stopped fogging up when we step outside. Our air-conditioning vents no longer have condensation on them.   

Less humidity may mean cooler weather but it can also result in a lack of grass. The RV park in Wyoming was all gravel. It made me long for the lush grass at the Oklahoma RV park that our dog Jack positively relished rolling in. 



Oh yeah, about that broken saucer... as we were turning out of the Kansas RV Park, one of our giant tires hit a dip in the road just so, and the sudden jolt caused a kitchen cabinet door to fly open and dishes to come crashing out. I learned that Corelle dishes do break. Luckily it was only one saucer that broke. Ironically, I had forgotten to bungee-cord shut the refrigerator and drawers that normally fly open but this time it was a different door that popped open. I might have to start duct-taping the cabinets shut. ðŸ¤£

We’ve seen a variety of scenery already: hills, plains, bluffs, snow-covered Rocky Mountains, not to mention flying cows in Kansas!

Here is our view driving through Wyoming:


We look forward to seeing what the road ahead brings.
