After The Deluge Day-Day 17

Awoke this morning with the temperature hovering around 55F.  The afternoon temperature did get up to 74F but most of the day was overcast and very wet.  I spent the bulk of the day driving through torrential rains, especially on Routes 84 and 86.  Purchased gasoline twice again ($3.629/gallon and $3.679/gallon) as I drove a little over 400 miles today.  I might add the $3.679 was an octane of 87.  I have now traveled a total of 5031 miles in the 17 days for an average of 296 miles per day.  This past week I have picked up the pace a bit.  State count now reads 13 with New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Idaho.  I am approximately 2-3 day ride from the Eitners, depending on the route I take.  I am leaning toward stopping off at Mt Ranier on the way up.
Enjoy your Friday everyone!
