Day off in Mount Shasta, CA yesterday…mental hot. Would’ve melted outside so ran in the hotel gym watching Spongebob…look, no legs!

So I almost got to realise my dream of pancakes in Wyoming this morning – we overshot and ended up at Dees Restaurant in Ogden, Utah

We left Denver yesterday for the plains of Wyoming, stopping in Cheyenne for dinner. Proper mammy dinner too. With vegetables and everything…

Sheet lightening against the dying of the light, behind the Rockies in the distance. Many cows. Leather waistcoats for sale in a truck stop, with sewn-in gun holster.

Crossing into Idaho now, this is one magnificent drive

Decided against going shooting some stuff on our day off yesterday in Lincoln Nebraska…went bowling instead. Mark it zero Donny…
