We are staying in a church hostel tonight, and it was so nice because we had this afternoon to rest and have a kitchen. I ate, showered, did laundry, then read, slept, and read again. SOOO nice! Our ride today was vast land area, not one real town, and the terrain amazed me at many turns and hill crests. It was also amazing to see something so far in the distance and then work my way there and past. I loved these cows and the sounds they were making and how they kicked up dirt on themselves, I’ve never seen that before and will try to send a video! Jeffrey City was a boom town due to uranium mines for many years. When uranium bottomed out a few decades ago, the city nearly died. One café/bar remained open to serve those still living here (around 50) and those passing through. Except for the cigarette smoke, we really enjoyed the café this evening and then our group watched "the" basketball game but I enjoyed getting to know some people at the bar. Especially Jeremy, the man who owns the great dane (Opie), DeeDee on the end, who works with trees, & Scott in the yellow, who served us our drinks. I liked the camaraderie between them, which I think comes from a small town sticking together, and they seemed legit, no putting on. I like that. I also loved having five dogs roaming around inside. ...Tom did not.😁 ♥️terri
