Back in the saddle the sequel

Today we rode from Casper to Lusk, WY. It was 106 mile ride under perfect conditions. Blue skies, sunshine, temps in the 80's and best of all a strong tailwind moving us along. My back behaved and I had a pretty good ride. There are apt of wildlife out here that think nothing if running into the road. Riders have seen bears, buffalo, coyotes, deer and antelope come out of nowhere and run right near them. There was another incident today where a deer ran right in front of a rider and was smashed by a semi on the other side of the road. When I got to it the only recognizable part left was the head. The remainder looked like it had swallowed a hand grenade. We all have to wTch our sides and the road as well. Today is our last full day in Wyoming and the town of Lusk is having a parade and a frontier days tonight. We'll be checking it out
