Rock Slides, Snow and Wind
We are parked in front of our daughter's house in Aurora, CO and had a good nights sleep. It was a long trip through the Rockies yesterday. As we pulled into Grand Junction on Wed there was a sign that a rock slide had eastbound I70 closed just past where we stayed for the night. While we were checking in, the woman at the counter got a text message from her truck driving hubby that had been stuck on the other side of the slide that the road was open again. The was a big problem avoided. Thank you, Lord.
We went to bed after listening to a weather report that there were chain laws in effect and some road closers going east on I70 to Denver. We woke up yesterday and decided to drive as far down 70 as we could and we would have to stop if the roads just got too bad.
Here's photos from the drive through. I posted a long video on Facebook of the trip through the Eisenhower Tunnel.
