Buford, Wyoming Elevation 8000', Population 1

Yes, you read it right. In the middle of nowhere, we find the Buford Trading Post, Population 1, but they have free wireless internet. So, we are stopped for lunch.

We are on our 3rd day of traveling since we left Kentucky. We have been driving mostly through the plains (the prairies for us Canadians) and while there has been a lot of beauty, it has been long driving. Many hours each day, although some beautiful sunsets.

Our first night was spent in a rest stop which was surprisingly quiet and we had a great nights sleep. Our second night, thanks to a friends book (Free Camping in the US), we found a beautiful spot, just off the highway, at a Nature Conservation facility where there was a lake, bathrooms and no one else. It was perfect for the night, totally quiet.

Tonight, we will be arriving in Lander, Wyoming and hopefully climbing in Wild Iris tomorrow. Lander offers free camping in the city center, so we will be taking advantage of this tonight.

So far, budgeting going well, except of course for the gas.

Loving it, can't wait to be seeing the beauty of the mountains.

Pics to follow next time we find some free internet.
