Not sure whether to read on? Well, in this installment, I explore Colorado, drive 16 hours straight, learn how to drive in the snow while actually driving in said snow, among other things.

In my infinite wisdom, I decided to drive the 1,700-ish miles from California to South Dakota in three days. I had a new job, a packed car and 16 gigs of music and podcasts on my iPod. Introspective music anyone?
