Freezing!!! Our bus isn't insulated at all and there are many holes in it. We don't notice when it's sitting still with the heat cranked, but when we're going 70mph across the Kansas in 2 degree weather, it tends to be all we can think about. I can't get warm. I'm in my bunk, in my sleeping bag, under 2 blankets, and my feet are so cold they might fall off. Because the storm came through the area, we decided not to make the drive to KC last night. It was super foggy and slippery.

We left Colorado Springs around 9am. It's been a quiet day on the bus. Everyone's been reading, watching movies, or listening to music. Sundays are nice because there's not a lot of emails and phone calls coming in.

We're only 2 freezing hours away from Kansas City now. Haha! I know I shouldn't complain after the nasty winter so many parts of the country has dealt with. We tried our best to avoid winter, but it nailed us a few times.
