How much have you used in total so far on the trip?
By the way, the roads in Denver were horrendous this morning. Three inches of solid ice on all the side streets. I hope you don't run across these same conditions in western Kansas. Be prepared to hole up for a night if it happens. I've tried to drive across western Kansas in those conditions and regretted it.

Thanks Kerry (you guy or gal?) I knew a storm was on the way.
Do you know how far east it went?
