Day 23

       Once again out across the plains toward Falcon, Colorado and the home of Lyn. I just can’t believe there are no gas stations around here. I traveled only 100 or so miles today and with the extra gas I carry I was just fine! My visit was really great but I think I talked her leg off. She just lost her husband not too long ago and she was able to relate to the hills and valleys of the emotions you go through; as Steve says,” finding your new normal”. As you see in the pictures she has dogs and a couple donkeys, and I got to sleep in a race car bed! I have always wanted to have one of those beds since I was a little boy, and I finally got to sleep in one. You can see I am writing shorter posts lately. Well I’m just tired and worn out and I am posting 3 posts today and then I stop at Dolores, Colorado tomorrow, after which I will turn and start my way home. After I get a week of rest I’ll start filling in the blanks in these stories for you. Trust me it will be interesting.

From somewhere on the backroads,

The Demonmaster

LMAO at the race car bed!!
I love that phrase– “finding your new normal”. What a perfect way of describing it.
