Here We Go Again

 

Annual Fools Parades

Winter has arrived for about two thirds of Colorado, Northern New Mexico and Western Kansas. I-70 is closed off and on from Colby to Minturn. US 40 in Northwest Colorado closed off and on from Berthoud Pass to Craig. Highway 13 closed off and on from Rifle to Baggs. !-25 closed off and on from Castle Rock to Las Vegas, NM. Highway 160 from Walsenburg to Cortez is nearly impassable. For those not familiar with Colorado, draw line north from Denver to Wyoming and Northeast to Nebraska. Anything not in that area is getting slammed. So, what is the point, WSF? Every year people, who don’t bother to prepare, slide around and cause accidents. Fools go forth when they could postpone their trip for two days.

 I-80 across Wyoming is the usual mess. Wind gusts 70+mph around Elk Mountain. In other words, normal.

The Election

I don’t have much to say except to paraphrase Benjamin Franklin.

“You have your country back, if you can keep it”.

 As Always, YMMV

Yep, fools go Running Everywhere, as if it’s the middle of the summer… I’m guessing your sister will be busy with the insurance claims all winter.
