Ten Degrees and Getting Colder

  Cold Sunrise   That's just the name of the song written by Gordon Lightfoot.  It was actually -13 F when I got up this morning (wind chill -24).  Tucson may have pulled back into the lead!  There's a lot of weighing pros and cons of Colorado vs Arizona by the wood stove.  Not much else to report. I did enjoy a few games of pool and a beer with my brother this week.  We don't get together very often, so it's good to try to keep the lines of communication open, especially with my mother celebrating her 86th birthday next month.  He lives in Milwaukee and just started semi-retirement.  Our opposing politics and lifestyles keep things very casual and surface-level.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.   It's important to find common ground.  He and his wife have started going to concerts and recently saw the Steve Miller Band.  Music is one of our common interests.      

Thermopolis




Well, it was about that time.  I hadn’t had a real shower in about a week, aside from the dip in the lake.  Also, the waste tanks of the Brew Hut needed dumping, and the laundry needed doing.  I drove through Ten Sleep and Worland without finding any suitable place to do chores.  Finally, I remembered a full service rv park in Thermopolis that featured mineral baths. A little pricey at $45, but I had stayed for free several nights so I decided to splurge.

After taking care of chores, I went for a dip.  There’s hardly anyone around during the middle of the week, so I felt like it was my own private spa.


I expect to be back on the road after this overnight–headed towards Green River, Wyoming.
