Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Taking off around 11am on Monday from Claresholme, we had a short run down to Eddie's corner in Montana for the night, then ran down through Wyoming, to the Flying J in Cheyenne for Tuesday night, with pretty good weather all the way down.

Wednesday saw us continuing south through Colorado, around Denver.

A few miles East of Denver we turned south again to head through a portion of Oklahoma and into Texas, but not before we were slowed down by the remnants of a sizeable snowfall around Eads and Lamar in Colorado.

Just north of Boise City we came to a halt for an hour whilst a wreck was cleared further south of us.

Then off again in clear blue skies, but at a very slow crawl for quite a few miles.

As we'd been delayed and it was now dark, we just ran down to Vega for the night and parked in the manky Shell station beside the I40.

We had an uneventful drive down to Odessa for our first drop, then a scenic route drive down to San Antonio, which saw us pulling into a Wallmart car park with only minutes left on my log as we kept finding 'no truck parking' signs off all the bloody exit ramps near the city!
During this part of the trip we drove through what must be the prettiest and most extensive Christmas light show in any small town in the USA, Frederickburg TX... sorry, no pictures, but it was magical all through the town.

The last leg was a quick jaunt down to the Mexican border at Pharr where we had to go and get our paperwork stamped  (after a long wait in line) at customs before going to a shipper to be off loaded.
We are now stuck in a truckstop in Edinburg as we can't re-load until Tuesday AM in Houston, but at least we get paid layover pay!

2,250 miles.
