Pulling an all nighter!

We're currently 1206 miles into our trip and have about 700 left. In 19 hours we've driven through Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, and now we're in New Mexico. We've loaded up on 5-hours and energy drinks to keep us going. We each did a 6 hour shift of driving to start, then we each did 3 more hours. Now Anthony is driving again so we'll see how long he can last before we need to switch again. Since we're down to 11 hours left, it seems pointless to get a hotel room now. We'll see if that changes a few more hours in though!

We didn't see any exciting sights today so that was a bummer. We did drive past multiple landfills though, so that provided some lovely smells in the car. I'm still hoping to see a few crazy attractions before the trip ends though. A few I have my eye on in Arizona are a tree shaped like a giant bra, a two-story tall muffler man, Finger Rock (which is a giant rock flipping the bird), and the world's largest cow skull. Exciting stuff!!

It's currently 13 degrees here in New Mexico and has been fluctuating between -1 and about 20 degrees. It's definitely got us missing the 40 degree temps we left behind in Iowa! We've seen quite a bit of snow/ice here too. Hopefully we'll be through all that soon enough. We're definitely ready for mid-70's and sunny in California this week!

That's it for now. Hopefully the next time I post it will be from the hot tub at Tony's place!!
