The drive from Denver to Vegas was one of the most silencing things I've ever experienced. I really can't describe it. So here are a few pictures...
This is Emily, my travel partner.
The passes on I-70 in Colorado were incredible. Utah was amazing. Easily the most beautiful state I've ever been in. From the Springs to Vegas, there would be a mountain in sight at any given moment. We probably saw 4 towns/cities while driving through. There was also this sweet railroad tunnel that looked like the one in the chase scene from 3:10 to Yuma. But we didn't get pictures. I will be visiting Utah again in my lifetime.
I-15 runs through the northwest edge of Zion National Park. We decided to swing in and drive around. We would not regret this. More of beautiful Utah. Lots of redness.
OK. Vegas. Las Vegas has been interesting. When we crested the hill that led into the city, we saw more lights than you can imagine. We didn't take pictures for awhile because we were pretty shocked. We just weren't expecting it for another 20 miles and it was there. Boom.
Definitely lots of gambling. Lots of interesting food options, like the "Cab Drivers' Special", from which I got a 1/2 pound burger and fries for $3.
The best part about Vegas has been driving in and seeing an In-N-Out, which I thought were exclusively California. SWEET. We will be going to lunch there in about an hour. It feels like Christmas.
None of the pictures from Vegas really turned out. But I will put them up anyway.
