This
will be a quick and easy page to finish. Left the Hostel
of the Rockies at 8 AM. Around noon I was tired, hungry,
stressed. Stopped at a restaurant and splurged. Prime
rib, baked potato, & salad for $8.95. And a big glass of
Coke Cola.
Headed
toward Little Bighorn Battlefield in Wyoming. By the time I
there it was getting late. Stopped in gift shop, got coffee,
and sat down to fill out post cards. A storm was brewing
outside--the sky was getting pretty ominous looking.
No
hostels in the area, and I didn't feel like sleeping in my tent in
the rain. It's a pain taking it down when it's pouring out,
then having to drive the car all day in wet clothes.
Drove to
Sheridan, Wyoming and pulled into the State Information Center which
was closed. Parked right next to an RV. There was a man
and woman sitting in lawn chairs beside it. They saw my bumper
stickers and asked me about Alaska--that's were they were
headed. They gave me some coffee and we sat and talked for a
while. Then I crawled into the back seat of my car and went to
sleep.
Woke up
at 5:30 AM and headed toward Devil's Tower.
