Casper Wyoming: Just When You Think It Can't Get Any Better....

Up bright and early and headed from Buena Vista, Colorado to Casper, Wyoming. This was our longest day on the bus so far (but it won’t be the longest bus ride of the trip).



Here's the temperature sign at People’s Mortgage in BV -

I hear its slightly cooler up here than it is back home (“slightly” as in a Honda Prius gets “slightly” better gas mileage than a Hummer.).

We had a quick lunch at Ft. Collins...






and slipped quietly in to Wyoming a little after noon today (mountain time). The sky is very big here and we saw lots of antelope as we drove along. Arrived in Casper to some wonderful hospitality and (hands down, unanimously) the best food of the entire trip……ever. It was a buffet!! Then the folks here packed up some more for us to take to the hotel after we left. We also had one of the best performances ever – a very responsive crowd, great acoustics in a grand old church with a fine old pipe organ. The building was built in the 50’s, but the church itself dates back to 1893 or so and sits right downtown. Even better, their pastor is a Texan. Just couldn’t ask for a better day. When you check out the photos from today ( at www.sierravista.org/godspell/godspell.htm ) you’ll see a snapshot of two girls holding autographed programs and smiling. Yep, we have groupies.

I love this place (but I’m glad its Summer).

Happy Birthday to Claire Bryan (that’s why she’s wearing the princess hat today). Had a birthday cake, too.




Up early and off to Yellowstone tomorrow and I hear we’re going by Little Big Horn on the way. OK Moms: I’m anticipating little or no internet up there so if you don’t hear from us for a couple of days, we’re OK. Don’t fret – just keep praying. We’ll be fine.

Grace and Peace:
