Day 76 – 2014-08-03, Sunday – Curt Gowdy State Park, WY to Dubois, WY

Got a fairly early start. We’d done all the outside prep we could do, so it was pretty easy to get going this morning. Pulled out right at 9:00, headed for Riverton, WY.

After a couple of hours, it was time to switch highways, and kinda time for lunch, so we start looking … nothing too far out of the way. There re billboards for a Chinese Restaurant at our exit, and that sounds really good. Ok, I see Burger King – BZZZZT! … McDonald’s – BZZZZT! … Taco Bell – BZZZZT! … no Chinese place … this sucks! Last place I see is Pizza Hut, and we have to eat, so … ugh.

Actually, the pizza was pretty good, considering. Not great, but not bad. Actually better than some of the others we’ve had recently, which is REALLY bad for the independents! Do we need fuel? Nah … we’re over half a tank. Off we go. Oh, yeah … we’re not actually going to Riverton, we’re going to Dubois (pronounced DEW-boyz). A bit further. Maybe we should have filled up …

The scenery is nice:

And this one, which looks like it has a glacier on the right side:

Yeah, I know – hard to tell. Phone photos are hard to tell from. Lots of reflections, too.

We get to Lander, somewhere on the way, and the needle is close to “E”, so we stop and fill up. A bit over 32 gallons, which means we only had a bit less than three to completely dry. I don’t like getting that close, it’s only about thirty five miles when we’re towing.

A few minutes after three, and we’re at the local KoA. Woohoo! Steaks in town tonight, and some REAL photos of the sunset – hope it’s a nice one!

Well, I went, and it was pretty drab. I actually made this where it looks better than the real deal! Not a lot of work, Clarity, Saturation, and some Shadow adjustments:

Tomorrow – Victor!

Oh yeah, on the way back, I saw this laundromat, and thought the doorway was interesting:

Only in Wyoming. Or Montana. Or Texas, Oklahoma, Idaho …
