We’re a day ahead of the original schedule and are safely ensconced in a campground just south of Cheyenne, Wyoming. The WiFi connection is very sketchy and quite frustrating. I’m hoping it’ll stay connected when I post this so I don’t lose it! I’ve already lost one post earlier on the trip.

We left Gretna, Nebraska at about 9:30 a.m. this morning and arrived in Cheyenne about nine hours later but having gained an hour when we moved into Mountain Daylight Time, we actually got here about 5:30 p.m. That doesn’t matter very much … even though the clock says 9 p.m., I’m more than tired enough to be in bed. So I think after posting this, that’s where I’m headed.

For some reason, we’ve gotten back into thundershower country again! As we crossed into Wyoming we were in a huge thunderstorm with some pretty gusty winds. The weather map looks like a line of thunderstorms is headed through this area for the next several hours. We’ve had plenty of rain on this trip!

Tomorrow we’ll drive through to Pocatello, stopping by my favorite brother’s place for about a half-hour and perhaps seeing mother and dad for a few minutes as we blow through Soda Springs. Tomorrow night we’ll be back in our own beds once again. Then we can start planning the next trip! We’ve still got a trip to Seattle and to Chandler to do yet this year. I think the motorhome will get a pretty good workout this fall. It’s been a good trip and it’ll also be very good to get home.
