Day 5 - Wyoming, Utah

Rose here

Another good night at the Hitching Post Inn. In Cheyenne, my first Western city. There was an enormous cowboy boot at the entrance, which of course, I forgot to photograph until it was too late.

Freezing temperatures in the night. 33 degrees this morning while we packed the truck. No wind as you can see in the photo of this wind farm. Yes, I know, it's a moment in time when I snapped the picture so the windmills would look still anyway - but I promise you they were stiff and silent.

However, half an hour later, the wind came back over the fields and started buffeting the truck again.

We got our first glimpse of the Rocky Mountains in the distance. Snow covered already.

And we just saw a small herd of deer sitting in the grass. I am living in a movie for reals!
