I was lying on the couch the other night and looked down at my feet. I swear my feet are becoming webbed between my toes.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the rain, but it does raise concerns for me when it comes to driving through Wind River Canyon. It hasn’t been that many years ago when we had the enormous slide that covered the road and kept the canyon closed for a few days while they cleaned it up.
I know there have been slides in the canyon since the road was chiseled out, but I pay closer attention as I drive through these days, and worry about the folks that continue to fly through there without a care in the world.
I watch the walls ahead of me as I’m driving through now. I not only look at eye level stuff, I look way up the canyon walls because if you’re driving north through there you can still see the scars from that major slide coming from the rim of the canyon all the way to the ground.
The last thing any of us wants to do is come around a corner and find a boulder lying in the middle of the road.
So, slow down, keep your eyes peeled and arrive home safe and sound.
Oh, and cover up those feet.
