Road trip- day eighteen

Today we went to the Winter Quarter’s temple in the morning. It is one of the small temples but it is built into a hillside so there are two stories. This temple has beautiful stained-glass windows.



After the temple, we changed our clothes as the Winter Quarter’s visitor’s Center and hit the road again.

Nebraska has some of the flattest landscape that I have ever seen! The only thing that blocked our view of the horizon was the trees that grew along the rivers and streams.

It was very, very windy for most of our drive through Nebraska and into Wyoming. The car would bounce around in the wind sometimes and our average MPG dropped from 27 to about 20 because of the wind. Every time we passed a big truck we could feel the car speed up a little while we were in its ‘wind shadow’ and then slow back down again once we finished passing the truck. The wind wasn’t so bad by the time we got to Cheyenne and we stopped there for the night.
