Wyoming State Prison






























Utah Olympic Park








































Luge


















Downhill Ski Practice






















Beaver, Utah

It seems we have been on the road forever. Some of the big states take a long time to get through. We were in Montana a long time and in Wyoming a long time. There is so much open land in the U.S. that it is hard to believe some say we are over populated. Oh well, I'll save my politics for another blog.

The State Prison is closed now but we took a tour of it. This prison even had a gas chamber (I spared you having to look at it) and I couldn't believe the people on the tour put their kids in the seat and took pictures of them. There is just no figuring some people out. The prison is in Rawlins, Wyoming.

Next we went to Park City, Utah. It is the home of the 2002 olympics. We got to take a tour of the whole thing. They had the opening ceremonies costumes on display, all the pictures of the athletes, and even some of the medals. The luge is really something to see. It is much longer and curvier than I imagined. We also were really surprised to see the athletes practicing downhill skiing. They put on wet suits and get to the top of the track and ski down landing in a swimming pool. We got to watch them for quite a while. They did somersaults into the water. I guess Park City is the place everyone goes to party. It is very upscale.

We came south on 15 because we were going to meet some friends in Zion. It turned out they couldn't come because of truck trouble so we are just going to move on. We are now in Beaver, Utah. We will be here until Sat. and then go to Mesquite, NV. We are slowly making our way back home but not sure when. We are having a great time. The weather right now is thunder, lightening and rain.

Take Care

Happy Campers.
