Meredith & Tom's Trip to California
Day 4: Omaha to Denver
Distance: 540 miles Highlights
Day 4. A big driving day for us. We got an early start and split Omaha, NE by 9:45am. I ventured behind the
wheel for the first time of the entire trip. Tom pointed out that the speed limit was 75 and we could pretty
much do 80 legally. Well, I popped in the Eminem cd and got a little carried away. At one point I looked down
and noticed I was driving 95! Needless to say I slowed down (but we made some good time!). The police cars are
Cameros...kind of funny. Anyway, we drove and drove and stopped and stopped. As we traveled through CO getting
closer and closer to Denver, the sun began to set. The scene was really beautiful. We captured some nice shots
with the sun against the snow. By 4:45pm we arrived at Kathy & Doug's place (Tom's sister) in Denver. We spent
some time hanging out and visiting with the twins until K&D left for a hockey game. Pat came over and the three
of us went out for dinner. It's been great seeing all the Grueskins along the way!
