Since we are camping on Pole Mountain between Cheyenne and Laramie I just don't have good cell service. I'm just going to combine 5 days together. One day we made a trip to the Snowy Mountain Range. I was surprised at the amount of snow still up there. All the hiking trails and campgrounds on top were closed due to snow. It made for a pretty drive. We got out a couple of times to walk around. Cooper was not a fan of the snow. We drove down the other side of the mountain to Saratoga, Riverside,and Encampment. The North Platte river runs thru these towns and it's very pretty. We ate a late lunch in Encampment at the Bear Trap Cafe. It was very good . It was a long drive back to camp on a full belly. Most of the time we stayed in camp. Susan sewed and Cooper kept busy with the chipmunks. I hung a hummingbird feeder and they found it pretty quick. The same 3-4 came every morning and evening.. We went to Cheyenne one day. Susan went to two quilt shops and I went to Harbor Freight to get a new electric jack for the trailer. We took a chance and ate at a Mexican food place and it turned out very good. We made a couple of more trips to Laramie for different things. I installed the new jack on the trailer. The rest of the time we drove the countryside. our plan is to leave on the 24 for Encampment. One thing I forgot to mention is wind. A calm day was 10-15 mph. A couple of days it was 30-35 mph winds. We got gusts up to 50 mph at times. Not conducive to sitting outside.
