On the road to Gillette

Jan and I left Phoenix this morning and started our journey to Gillette, WY for the 53rd WBCCI International Rally. We are in Bluff UT tonight after driving 350 miles. We made stops in Flagstaff and Monument Valley. The wifi connection is slow here and I will post pictures later. We should arrive in Gillette on Sunday. If you are going to the rally, stop by and say HI! We will be parked in the VAC area and our number is 7513.

From Bluff, where are you headed next? Wave if you pass through Golden/Denver tomorrow...we'll see you in Gillette next week! We're putting the finishing touches on Birdy's polish job this weekend...

Ah yes, "just a Winnemucca trucker with a load of black sheep". Night Rider by CW McCall.

I don't know about Night Rider,

I just like to say, Winnemucca.

Nothing else rolls off the tongue quite like, Winnemucca.

See you in Gillette.

Day 2 put us in the small town of Meeker, CO. We parked at the city park, 30 amp power and restrooms and a dump station for $15 per night. It was a great site and would stay there again in a heart beat...

We are now at the KOA in Casper, WY.
We have meet several others heading for Gilette. We are having a great trip. We should be pulling into Gillette tomorrow early afternoon.

While on a detour in Casper we saw the
airstream in the last picture. Someone added something to the rear of the unit. It was ugly...

That's strange. They show up OK for me.

Headed out in the morning. Can you say Winnemucca?

I knew you could.

Great pictures, and love that city park! Reminds me of Alice's RV Park in Hooker, OK.

Travel safe,
