High of 85 and sunny.
Entering Wyoming we had to have our boats checked for aquatic invasive species. We passed. Drive by shot of the the Great Salt Lake, welcome to Wyoming, golden banner and wild iris, statue of Jim Bridger, and the sign for Fort Bridger State Historic site and museum. we passed the turn off for the Golden Spike National Historic site in Utah, it is where the transcontinental railroads from the east and west met. A ceremonial golden spike was driven in to it on May 10, 1869.
We are now camped at Fort Bridger RV camp.
A few more rows on the masterpiece today. It is about 9 1/2 inches across. Beautiful, historic downtown Fort Bridger, WY. 100 people live here.
One of a handful of businesses in downtown. You can get liquor, beer, gas and groceries here. The blacksmith shop is temporarily closed now.
Old wagons. Jim Bridger trading post, you can get appliances, groceries, souvenirs, root beer floats and fireworks here. I looked in the window and it looked like mostly souvenirs.
Fort Bridger State Historic monument. I didn't go in, it looked like it would take all day to see it. New cabins, $1.00 and up is also part of the monument.
Cool looking 5th wheel with 2 patios. It is 50 feet long- with the porches inside and 71 when it is attached to the truck. Sunset tonight.
89, sunny and wind with up to 45 mph gusts. Another long day of driving. Fortunately it was a tail wind and we got 10.7 miles to the gallon driving to Rawlins. We are now camped at Western Hills campground in Rawlins, WY. I finished adding needles to the masterpiece. It is 9 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches. I have to touch up the stitches around the beads and do something to the center.
A few signs around the RV park. The bottom is the miniature golf course. The bus is in the middle of the photo at Western Hills Campground.
Light on the hills and virga to the south,
Sunset.
