Yesterday's drive should have taken us about 12 hours, but it ended up being closer to 15 hours. First, we got caught behind a pileup on the I-215, and blew about an hour and a half scooting around that. Then when we got all the way up to Nephi, Utah, we ran into a stretch of I-15 that was completely closed – and that involved a 30 mile detour on country roads in a snowstorm while temperatures hovered at the freezing mark. What fun! The snowy landscapes were fun for us to see, though...
On the way through St. George, UT, we decided to stop for some ice cream. Purely by accident, we stumbled onto Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, where we both had a chocolate malt. Yum!
Today we're going to relax and rest a bit, get a feel for what winter up here is really like, and start our explorations...
