We have overcome the hazards of traveling in Wyoming "winter" weather.  Hitting "black ice" sends one flying through the air and landing in a ditch, thankfully upright!  We had a tire come off the rim and it it took about 3 hours to get it fixed and back on the road thanks to AAA.  (We could not get it jacked up high enough, nor dug out of the mud enough to get the spare tire on.)
Should be home in Iowa tomorrow to get the tire fixed and check the alignment on the Envoy.
We now have the storage trailer we have named "Behemoth" (it's 8'x24').  We have some of what we want to store in it, but are awaiting the shelves on "back-order" at Menards for the rest. Aaron came home for a visit and he helped me get the equalizing hitch set-up for pulling it.
With Aaron coming home, we made a trip out to Wyoming for him to visit Lori's dad, he was in military training when his grandmother passed away in June.  So we have been in Casper, Wyoming for 10 inches of snow and record cold (14 degrees) and delayed traveling home until today.  Should have waited another day perhaps, but Thank the Lord we stayed safe!
