re: #34 wheat-dogg
Well, from Wheatland, it was not too bad. I reckon there were tons more folks further north (Douglas, Guernsey and Casper) glomming up the highway. It took us about 4 hours to reach Denver International to return the rental car.
Ayup, there was traffic. Under normal traffic, that should have taken two and a half hours.
Cβest la vie.
