Safe travels west!! I'd love to watch the forecast and pick a day where you can come ski here with GOOD conditions. You two have gotten skunked here IIRC. We have 50% off buddy passes...can ski any day midweek, too.

Skis in the bed. It is amazing how much space is taken up by 5 pairs of skis. All the luggage and essentials in the bed. Things we can’t allow to freeze traveling in the (extended) cab. Golden retriever in the back seat of the cab. Psychotic cat in a large soft carrier in the back seat. If I have time, I’ll snap a couple of pictures. If you’d like, I’ll also record the vocalizations that my poor cat is likely to make.
When I did road trips with my cat (we did 2 cross-country plus other 6-10 hour trips) he would typically scream bloody murder for the first few hours and puke somewhere in that time frame and then settle in. I tried benedryl but that cat could smell it from a mile away. Even the baby liquid mostly ended up all over his fur and me. If we stopped in a hotel for a night he would meow the entire night as he explored. It's a wonder we didn't get kicked out. Unfortunately, my next few weeks is really crazy with school so I can't see being able to connect on your way through. Maybe as you head home after your adventures?
We’ll bring some Colorado catnip when we come out. Works better than ketamine on a monkey...

I expect Ellobruce to howl for the first couple of hours. We may bring earplugs if he yowls any longer than that. Or turn up the music. He will be taking gabapentin the next few days, and his carrier is sizable enough for a bed and litter box (he is sleeping in it right now). We have two extra large bottles of Feliway with us - it does seem to help him out.
Oh yes Kevin, he really likes catnip or are you talking about “catnip?”

Obvious you are a porsche guy, not a truck guy Bob. Get it right if you want to pull this off.! That is a crew cab, NOT an extended cab.......
Travel safe and have a great trip. You should really just drive a bit further to Tahoe as well.....

Day 1 of the trip. Got a late start and made it to Batavia, NY. Both pets remarkably good in the car.
Ellobruce and Feebee in the hotel room. Notice Ellobruce’s dilated pupils - this is how he prepares himself to run away.
There are skis under all that stuff somewhere
Signtseeing at a rest stop.

It looks more like a F-O expression. That is one freaked out cat. Safe travels to you & the whole crew.
You could see some interesting weather driving across the midwest this week. All part of the adventure, but be safe. I'm a few days right behind you.

Believe or not, that is him acting relatively mellow
Feebee looks as though she is owning the relaxation part of this journey.
