Something that I left out from the story... about the time we hit the NM/AZ border, I started feeling weak and queezy. I must have looked pretty bad because the wife asked if I wanted her to drive. She knew I was really feeling bad because I took her up on the offer. When we hit Winslow AZ (which would normally elicit me breaking into harmonious song) I was very suddenly and very violently ill. I'll refrain from getting real graphic here but we had the foresight to travel with some little garbage bags and I quickly filled 2 of them.

Big shout-out to my wife here. She kept on truckin' at around 90mph until I just couldn't sit in the car any more. We made it to Flagstaff (halfway to our intended stop for the day) around mid-afternoon and got a room for the night. By that time, I'd filled another 2 bags. Ugh. The wife dragged my sorry butt into the Best Western and I made what was thankfully a very quick recovery. By morning I was able to hold down some oatmeal so we got back on the road and the wife got us to the AZ/NV state line. By that time I was good to drive again.

Is the above TMI? Maybe. But I couldn't tell the fun parts of the story and leave out where the wife saved the day.
