I80 travels, wind, and Airstream sitings

Hit the road on my own. I should name my gun "Nellie" Anyway, heading east on I80 and saw plenty of burners heading to Burning Man. Saw more Airstreams than the usual this year. What gives? Wonder if any of them are part of the Airstream camp at the playa?
Had to deal with lots of wind. Slowed down and drove a little over 60mph. So felt I had to take it easy since the trailer was taking the wind and was reacting to the gusts. We got through it. Up here is Laramie, Wy and so much for all my summer clothes that I have the most.
Boondocked on the North Platte River. A nice freebie spot north of I80. Quiet with coyotes yipping away and bright stars. Now I am at a boring KOA since I can't park at my son's house but one night.

You be careful in those winds. I once saw a SOB trailer and contents spread over 100 yards of ditch in WY. I saw daylight under the tires of an 18 wheeler in NE. SCARY stuff.
