The most fun to be had was at a rest stop in Idaho, in the middle of nowhere. Whoever said Chicago was "the windy city" has obviously not been to this rest stop.
It was dinner time, so we decided to pull out our picnic and eat under the sheltered pavilion. Little did we know that our entire dinner time would be spent weighing down our plates, napkins, and other food items as well as chasing our plates, napkins, and other food items because of the wind. It wasn't long before we understood why we were the only ones utilizing the tables...many were enjoying their dinners in a windless environment, their cars.
The pictures do not do the wind justice but please notice the girl's wind-blown hair. I would have loved to have captured the "damage" of the wind but I was too busy chasing our dinner so these will have to do!
At the end of the day we were grateful to arrive in Boise without any casualties from the wind and better yet, we ALL made it alive, even after the long car ride. Good thing because there would be much more driving ahead of us, we had only just begun!
