A redneck road trip west....

[RIP - VTEnviro]

There aren't any of those around here, seeing as I'm 110 miles from the nearest Interstate.

Wide open spaces...Lots of roads in Texas are at 80 mph...the one below is just outside the ATX though. They're trying to increase traffic on a toll road through no where...

We've been toying with 80, but keeping watching Texas to see if anything goes wrong with it.

 

[envirotex]

So far, feral hogs have been the biggest issue...seriously.

I have to admit Kansas is much prettier than I was expecting

Except for the windmill of course

Well they shouldn't be driving in the first place.

DAMNIT, RG! If you're taking pictures of windmills, you pose the PRIUS is the picture.

We have so much to teach you before Colorado knows you're not from about these parts.

I know I know...

If I stop at everything ill never get there!

They're doing it wrong. They should lower the the speed limit to 55 or so, then ticket the hell out of the drivers when the on and off times on their EZ-pass extrapolate out to an average speed of 78.

You really need to move the "Animal Xing" signs to safer places.

I hear there's another smug storm heading towards CO from LA and SF. Hope you make it there safely before that hits.

 

[Road Guy]

Yeah I see a pretty big storm to myself but it looks like it's a ways away it's been raining for last hour and a half on I 70

Tell me about it. The Californians who move to CO are totally smug. I don't know if the state can handle anymore, though.

I have been given notice that Colorado will take Southerners to help balance out the people from California.

I just crossed elevation 3000 feet also

 

[csb]

Let us know when you reach a real elevation.

Typed from 6000' above sea level.

Make sure you talk with an extra thick Southern drawl to compensate for the smug, whiney Californians.

Sunday morning I expect to be over the 14k elevation (barely)...

But be careful with saying y'all, or you may be confused with a Texan which is just as bad...
