16 hours and almost 1000 miles later....
... watched the hawks game. So perfect after a couple days on the road! Would have been better with a win, but still no complaining here. :) Following the game we headed to a KOA campground in the city where we set up shop for the night. Decided to take it easy and spent the evening just catching up on sleep and relaxing. The next morning before heading out of town we checked out the LDS church in Temple Square in the heart of Salt Lake City. That thing is HUGE! It's interesting to ...

River Deep, Mountain High
... Chicago, such a shame.
After narrowly avoiding some falling rock, well an oversized pebble in the road, i was kinda getting fed up of driving, well being held up by other vehicles (i can only do a couple of hours before i want to mess around) so i decided next stop i would pull over, i needed a pee anyway. We hit the town of durango and i saw a shopping mall and being the nice guy i am i said to laura she could go shopping. Well big mistake, not ...
