_ _ _ a little snowy there, Lauren.
It's wintertime here.
It was 75 when we left Lincoln this morning.
And now it's a snow day.
Snow on my quarter, [Ab] boys.
Sometimes the weather causes bad things to happen in Wyoming.
Like roads closing.
What's it like, Lauren?
[D] _ It's scary.
It's [Abm] just a really new experience.
I feel like I'm learning a lot.
Seriously, look at all the trucks as far as the eye can see.
Maybe we should all consider to just stop moving when the weather gets bad.
_ It was very eerie at first.
A little bit Stephen King.
Maybe [N] everyone had died.
We didn't know.
We didn't know.
We thought the rapture had happened for a second.
But then we were like, _ nah.
[Ab] This sign is pretty ridiculous.
That's what [Gbm] America looks like.
It is.
Kids in cowboy hats and hot dogs.
Probably watching baseball on a horse.
