July 16, 1999

On July 16, my ride from Rock Springs to the town of Farson was so dull that I never once reached for my camera. It wasn’t without pain, however, as a stiff wind was in my face all day. The day’s travel was only about 45 miles, but felt like 80. I’m staying the night in the town park (only $4) and will hope for less wind tomorrow as I have further to go.

It did occur to me that Farson could be a combination of "Far" as in "The Far Side" and "Larson" as in Gary Larson. I’ll be on the lookout for weirdo cows in the town tonight.
