Interesting drive to Casper Friday, or why I Love my Audi
Drove up to Casper Friday afternoon/night. Winds were gusting to 60 mph. blizzard conditions for the last hour of the drive. semi's overturned along the Interstate from the wind, camper shells blowing off, small trailer blowing over. I just cruised at 85 mph (until the snow hit then I went ~60mph). Made the drive in 2 1/2 hours, talked with someone that left an hour after I did and took 6 hours for the same trip! They couldn't get their SUV over 65 in the wind and had to go 45 in the snow. My gas mileage was over 5 mpg worse in the wind but the car was very stable. I-25 closed later that night.

We had some friends drive up and meet us in Steamboat Friday night...
They had major problems going up that way too; didn't sound like any fun at all. We drove up Thursday night and skied hard pack on Friday, but woke up to this on Saturday:
