When we left Cedar City (Utah) this morning, it was 38º. On the bright side, there was no precip (finally). On the not so bright side, the wind was, again, blowing like stink. We had options for directions: one way past Lake Powell, the other way skirting Las Vegas. Less than 10 miles difference between the routes, but at least an hour shorter via Vegas... it's Vegas, baby!
We had a tailwind all the way to Vegas, then a crosswind as we made our way past Hoover Dam and on to Kingman, AZ. That turned to a headwind after we fueled up there. Not a big deal since we weren't hauling something high profile behind us.
We rolled into the Phoenix area before rush hour, getting to see a good portion of the new 303 Expressway - it's going to be a traffic mover when it's done.
We moved in and are waiting for "the kids" to get home from work.
The contrasts? It has been chilly and wet the past few days. Today: hot and dry. No question we are back in the desert...
