Made it into Cheyenne with pit-stops in Salt Lake City and Rock Springs, WY. Over 800 Miles.
I-80 construction is annoying
Got my first speeding ticket -- ever. NV state trooper nabbed me doing 89 in a 75. He was decent enough to write it up for 80.
The signs in the Salt Lake Desert/Salt Flats about Drowsy Driving were classic.
Salt Lake City was clean and tidy, very green and seemingly devoid of people. Maybe they overbuilt during the Winter Olympics and haven't filled it in yet?
Rock Springs is in the center of mining, and chemical country. Drove through looking for something to eat. Decided against it since no non-meat options were forthcoming. Popped into the Starbucks there, found out it would open in 2 weeks... Walked the dog in the remains of the old downtown, long since killed by WalMart. It's a depressing collection of strip clubs, and cheap storefronts for local services (karate, nails, haircuts, etc.)
Now in Cheyenne at a place at the edge of town. Trains going by now and again. Need to get to sleep so we can make the final 850 mile leg through Nebraska and Iowa....
