we're in rawlins wyoming. just a travel day today, down from jackson and the tetons. good day for laundry and catching up on bill paying and internet stuff, since it's actually free here. our drive today was still more sagebrush and not much else. crossed the continental divide again, third time now. snow is predicted here tonight, not much, maybe a couple of inches at most. change of plans decided on though. we were going to continue east then south into rocky mtn nat park. internet tells me that the main attraction, the ridge road at 12,000 plus feet is still closed for snow removal. so, we're going south tomorrow away from any snow, adding 2 days to durango colorado and 1 day to santa fe. that will give us about 2 1/2 full days to explore 4 corners area from the colorado side. and an extra day in santa fe. all of which promise better weather than our more northern route.
saw some more antelope and deer today, they were playing i think. and we saw quite a few buffalo roaming in yellowstone. and i think i only heard one discouraging word since we've been out here. and today at least since we left jackson, the skies are not cloudy all day. but i wouldn't want a home here. it's just too far from anything approaching civilization. it's gorgeous country and all, but it baffles me why people are living in some of the places we're been through. nj guy talking i guess.
crossed 5000 miles today in the car. getting our money's worth for sure.
