Open carry vacation to Wyoming, day 8, 9 and 10 - end of trip
(click on photo to see it big.)
Trip total: 3219 miles, slept in six Wyoming cities, two Utah cities, in ten days. We got three tiny spider cracks in the windshield from pebbles thrown by trucks (two in Wyoming, one in Utah.) There was snow in one part of the state while we were there, tornado in another (we missed both). Even so, we loved every minute of being there, and feel like we left home when we came back to Los Angeles.)
Leaving Wyoming. Sad. But…”Objects in the rear view mirror are closer than they appear.”

We packed and pumped at the Pump & Pack in Douglas:
Open carry dinner at T-Joe’s Steak House in Cheyenne:
Entering Colorado:
Entering Utah:
Our car at this amazing stop. We were the only people there:
Rainbow in Utah:
Utah, car carry only:
California. Guns back in the cases. Meh. How come the places you need ‘em the most you can have ‘em the least?:
DJ started to cry, literally, when we hit Los Angeles. It took us 90 minutes to go the last thirty miles:
Back in the nest.
Charlie cat happy to see us:
We’re trying to move to Wyoming within a month.

Moving, itself, is a pain in the rear…. but I know that you will both be much more content once it is done and over and you get settled into your new nest. Good luck on finding the right nest and finding new owners for the old one.
The pictures are great… I love the mountains, I live in the foothills of the Ozarks, but they are nothing compared to the Rockies. I also enjoy being by the ocean, but the local lakes will have to do for now.

“Objects in mirror are closer than they appear”
Ladies and gentlemen, I think we’ve just witnessed MWD getting all sorts of symbolic on our asses.
Glad you made it home safe and sound. Now start loading up the truck and move FROM Beverly!

I took the photo, and the photo told me what to write. The symbolism came 300 miles down the road.

I’ll BET she cried returning to LA. I worry about visiting there…. I might not leave at all.

Thanks Theresa.
We went and bought about 40 moving boxes from U-Haul today, and reserved the truck.
we’re really doing it. I can barely believe it!
