Day 1. Home to Box Elder SD

I left home 7/23 at 0830. It was cloudy and a muggy 76 degrees. By the time I was at the SD border it was 99. The temp just kept climbing. It topped out at 108!!!. It was 104-106 most of the way across I-90. I made 3 stops for gas, and a stop at every wayside rest area to wet down the cooling vest and neck cooler. I drank a gallon and a half of water and powerade between 0830 and 1900. I drove 600.4 miles and the FJR averaged 47 MPG.
I stopped in Box Elder, and spent the night at Lee and Gabi's place. It was a long, hot freakin' day!!
