Hyperhidrosis on I-84




Hyperhidrosis: a condition of sweaty palms caused by towing a huge trailer on icy roads with blowing snow!

Yup, that's what I had today for about 20 miles of Interstate 84 just before entering Utah from Idaho. After the truck tried to get a little squirrelly on me, we passed a jack-knifed semi and just past that, a Jeep going the other direction lost control and overturned on the center meridan! Woo hoo, wild times on the Interstate today!

We had beautiful blue skys and sunshine for most of our drive today from Boise to Ogden Utah. We had rough conditions before the state line and when we got close to SLC area, we had snow and dark skies. Our angels were with us and we made it in one piece. We're staying the night in the Riverdale, UT Wal-Mart parking lot. Tomorrow we'll head to Zion National Park for a few days.

Good photos, guys!
So glad you made it through the winter states safely. We've heard some pretty scary stories from people who have come down recently. It's been quite the year for winter storms!
We're still in Yuma for another week. We are actually getting some rain tonight!
Take care !
