We’re in Wyoming

Just to keep you on top of things, we’re in Wyoming now, and we’ve surpassed the 1,000 mile mark! This is our fifth, and squarest state. It’s also the last state, alphabetically. Little known fact: I can sing all the states in alphabetical order. Slightly less known fact: so can Andy. Pretty widely known fact: everyone who was ever in elementary school choir can sing the states in alphabetical order.
This is what we know about Wyoming: sometimes, the cities that have the smallest font size on the map aren’t really there at all. There’s a lot of nothing out here, but it’s a lot of beautiful nothing. There may be 40 miles between towns, but at least the road turns, and the variety of landscape is rich in color. It’s hilly, and the entire state doesn’t get below 5,000 feet or so. We’re currently in Farson, and we’re crossing the South Pass to make it to Lander tonight. This will be where we cross the Continental Divide! Yee-Haw!

Wyoooooming!
Don’t forget to drink some beers “to the wind”. Seems like I always have headwinds in Wyoming, no matter which direction I go. Almost got divorced there on my honeymoon!

wrecked my car in lander…cops put us up in a hotel for a few days (best run-in with the cops EVER!)…the rent-a-wreck rented us a car for three weeks even though we were 6 years under age. Ended up staying in Lander for almost a week (total) waiting for the insurance adjuster while some cool folks let us camp on their land…the guenthers. Pa Guenther was the curator at the local Morman/oregon trail museum. Great people. Viva Lander!!!
Your helmet-straps-sunglasses tans are progressing nicely! I bet each of you could leg press about 9,000 lbs by now.
Quinny, i miss you! your legs looked ripped! also as mom said, the sun glasses tans look fab, as do the helmet tans. Safe riding!
love you quinner!
Hey found your site by googling Boneshakers. That’s quite a journey. I’ve always heard bad things about wyoming drivers and skinny roads. How is it?
This is not Adriann, this is Andy’s dad visiting Adriann & using her computer here in Michigan. Congratulations upon reaching your fourth state. Hand salute to you all.
