Still Traveling North

This was another good day of travel. We started north out of Pueblo early this morning and are now in Rock Spring, Wyoming.

Since our travels today were in areas that we have already been too and seen, we went off the beaten path (translation interstate). When we got to Denver we headed west on US 40 and saw some beautiful mountain scenery that (we think) rivaled the Rocky Mountain National Park. There was a lookout at 11,500 feet and it was spectular. We met a couple of young men from Oklahoma and Texas (flat land USA) that had ridden their bicyles up the mountain from Winter Park. They asked to have their pictures taken. They then took our pictures and said we could use their bikes to make people think we had ridden up---yeah, sure!!!

Where drilling for oil products is permitted, they are working hard at putting down new wells---oil and natural gas (we think). In Wyoming it appears that the wells are almost on top of one another. We don't see sights like this back home.

Tomorrow, we are heading north again to the Tetons and Yellowstone. Since the daylight hours are long, we will probably leave early in the morning.
