Green Bay, WI –> Boulder, CO

Hello from the road. We were up and out of the hotel at 6am this morning as planned, swung by the airport in Green Bay, and we’re now just outside of Madison, en route to Colorado. Overcast day today with some thunderstorms, but overall the weather looks like it will be okay crossing the plains. We might hit some severe stuff in Nebraska this afternoon, but it’s too early to tell. We’re circling the city of Madison right now, can see the big white dome of the state capitol. Beers is driving, Anton’s in the back, and I’m riding shotgun. Since none of us got much sleep last night, we’re doing the ‘2 driver’ rule all day and night today. One person gets to sleep in the back bench row, the other two sit up front and keep each other awake and alert. It’s really hard to picture going to sleep in Boulder tonight, staring at Wisconsin license plates everywhere – but that’s the plan. More updates later if we have anything interesting to report.
