Yesterday, the group got up early and hit the road by 6:30 AM. We have a night game tonight in San Fransisco and needed to make the approximately 20 hour drive between Friday and Saturday. As we began the drive, I knew topography would be the theme of the day. Colorado stretched out in front us, with high mountains and beautiful cuts through the rocks. Then we entered Nevada, "Life elevated" (motto on their welcome signs). We stopped at a rest stop to go to the bathroom and play a little catch. Took this beautiful picture of the landscape around us (very different from Colorado)
The road trip continued, filled in good music, good (or bad) puns, and lots of laughing. I got some reading and writing done as well, so heyo for productivity!
We kept plugging along, took the wrong exit and saw the Salt Lake City airport and eventually crossed another state line into Nevada. As soon as we crossed, we picked up an hour and also saw our fair share of casinos. Even the Arbys/Pilot gas station we stopped at had a giant room of slot machines for people who were interested.
Around 10 PM, we got to our hotel, tired and cranky. I think we all pretty much just fell into our beds and passed out. Have another earlier morning today (7 PM departure) but sunny San Fran is in our sights!

Great to see you are getting closer. Just so you are prepared... Its sunny and warmer than Denver, but its sweatshirt weather here. Don't go to the game without some layers to add as the sun goes down.
