Glad you guys are home safe and the little black box turned out to be nothing serious… though the tread wrapping around the CV and axel probably dumped a bit of excitement into an otherwise uneventful strip of road.

And Dae recomending I-90 does not suprise me in the least.

That's why I subscribe to Newegg's newsletters. ;) As for our route: Both our GPS and Google Maps showed it as being about 30 minutes faster, and our experience in the past justified that. I agree, the I-90 route sure would seem to be faster, and I may try that next time, just to validate one way or the other.

Upwards of $200 for a vest? (Granted, it would be the equivalent of another carry-on bag!) :D I want more Tilley’s gear…but I’m not sure I can justify the expense. $20 for a pair of underwear?

FOR SHAME! I for one, do miss Fry's Electronics. We need to get one in Rapid, but alas I doubt the entire state of South Dakota has enough population to justify having one. QQ "In Rawlins, we turned north on US-287 toward Casper. We ran into a few showers, and saw considerable lightning, but managed to avoid the really serious thunderstorms. From Casper, we headed south on I-25 for a bit, then hit US-18 towards Lusk" Why not go north to Buffalo then run I-90 across? The interstate is actually much faster, as I have driven from San Diego to Spearfish many times over the years. But the only thing that matters is that you've arrived home safe. Glad you enjoyed your trip. .-= Daemetos´s last blog ..<a href="http://boomchicken.blogspot.com/2009/06/so-midsummer-festival.html" rel="nofollow">So.... Midsummer Festival</a> =-.

What a wonderful end to a great trip! Love all the food descriptions, and I wish I could try some of that zin - I'm not a beer drinker, but I drink gin and wine on occasion. Being from Wisconsin, I love microbrews - we have no less than four outstanding wineries within driving distance (as in, we can visit them all in a single day if we want) and I have yet to find a wine to equal them, regardless of price tag. Sounds like you guys had an incredible trip! .-= Tami´s last blog ..<a href="http://tamimoore.com/2009/weekly-menu/" rel="nofollow">Weekly Menu</a> =-. Woot! What a wonderful end to a great trip!
