Pictures of Our Road Trip, Pt. 2

Okay, so here's what we saw the first two days of the road trip:

These are some of the mountains in Nevada, just outside of Reno. While brown and ordinary most of the time, they were quite pretty when dusted with snow.

We stopped for lunch in Winnemucca, where it was VERY snowy. 

This is the start of Day 2. See the pretty Utah sunrise! Really, from I-80, I'd have to say Utah was the best-looking state.

Here we are, still in Utah, headed for Wyoming's capital. (At this point, it was still about 400 miles away.)

This is a lot of what Wyoming looked like: hills, vast expanses, big sky, light snow, and long, straight roads.

Also in Wyoming, there were many hilltops lined with rows of these huge windmills. They were absolutely enormous and very cool-looking.

See how cool-looking this is! From the picture you can't tell how huge it is. (That's what she said.)

Now, at some places there was a lot of snow blowing across the roads. It wasn't actually snowing, but the winds, those high Wyoming winds that we were warned about, blew the snow piled on the sides of the road across it.

Finally, here is another scene of Wyoming. All along the highway, they had these fences built, I'm guessing to block wind or what the wind blows. This was a pretty mountain to the south of I-80. The southern side of I-80 was consistently prettier than the northern side. It's like they purposefully divided the state in half.
