She keeps saying stuff like &#8220;I don&#8217;t care.&#8221; Oh well. Not much she can do about it since she is driving, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m linking with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/skyley.blogspot.com\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/skyley.blogspot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Skywatch Friday<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On our recent trip to Colorado to see family after Christmas we took a southern route through the Oklahoma panhandle and New Mexico to avoid some snowy weather.
