Cheyenne, Wyoming

This morning we left Colorado Springs for what we hoped was a short pleasant drive. Since we only had 186 miles to travel, we took our time getting on the road. After about 50 miles I began to wonder if we'd not have been wiser to stay over another day or two in Colorado Springs.

We ran into winds from the north-north west at about 45 miles per hour. Guess what?? we were going north west and this made our trip a bummer.

We heard a rather strange loud noise from the top left of the coach and had no idea what the problem could be. I finally found a wide place on the side to pull over and check things out. It turned out to be the "topper awning" above our front slide out. The wind had gotten under the front of it and had caused it to really flap in the wind. There was nothing we could do about it on the side of the busy Interstate. We'll check it out when we get to Cheyenne.

My navigator and photographer took some good pictures of our trip from inside a moving RV, I hope you enjoy them. If so, please send her a comment to this journal.
