Thanks Ed,

Traffic cops for sure, congestion fairly light north of Denver.  ND
seems to do a pretty good job building highways, probably because they
need to withstand the bitter cold winter/fairly hot summer temps.
They usually see high 90's at least once a year.  She is ready to fly
with me AFTER I've got a lot of time in it.  We usually take two days
driving.  Hopefully under 6 hours flying.
