Day 22. Travel by car from Lander to Rawlins.

Matching flower pots at my cabin steps. PRICKLY LETTUCE WEED

Unreal. All over the campground, there were flower pots with flowers in them and nice flower gardens. My cabin got the weeds. I just laughed.

Last night, I shared wine and dinner with a couple in a camper. She made awesome tacos. Today, my friend, Jean, formerly of Driggs and who now lives in Lander, drove me 120+ miles to Rawlins thru the high desert, which I’ve already ridden and didn’t need to do again. Was I ever glad . There was a gale force wind about halfway and all the way to Rawlins. I saw two other cyclists going into it and felt so sorry for them. It’s in the 80’s here in Rawlins, so I opted for a KOA cabin instead of tenting. It would have been almost impossible to set up a tent with that wind. Rawlins sits in the desert, so there’s lots of dust blowing. Felt like pampering myself.

Just going to read a book and rest up for tomorrow. Sure hope I don’t have this wind. Could be brutal.
