Turbulent, but still good, depending on your field of employment.

Where do you plan to enter Oregon? This time of year can get icy with lots of snow in the higher altitudes.

Yeah it's going to be tough, been watching the weather very closely. Seeing a friend in Salt Lake City, then taking I-84 up to hwy 20/26 then take that on into Bend. I've driven that area before, but with an AWD vehicle.

I have cable chains for the rear tires, so hopefully if I drive slowly and carefully I'll be ok.
