Nevada-Wyoming Yee Haw

It was tough getting up today....for all of us.  First night out on tour and it was all driving all day so I suppose that is my excuse. Still when we saw it was 103 degrees back home and we saw nothing above 85 today I'm not complaining.

Only our second day out and we had our first blown tire. One of the larger trailer's tires blew, and in a construction zone of all places.  The boys had it changed in no time and we only lost 13 minutes as a result.   Since they are behind me I got the call to turn around and Wyoming roads don't have a lot of turn around spots.  But as luck would have it I found one fairly quickly and then another one just 1.5 mils when it was time to turn back.

Keep your prayers for my mom. She got an unrelated to her heart infection and had to spend the last couple of nights in the hospital and is doing much better now.   Also keep a prayer for my dad as he is under a lot with all of this.

Below you will see a man we met at the RV park who saw our Anti Monkey Butt Ads on the trailer and RV and showed us he is a fan.  We also were asked about it twice today with one man at a gas station asking if we had samples since this morning he had to use baby powder.

Victor (10) has a new job. He is keeping the receipt book. He inputs all the expenses for the show.  He also learned how to do the hook ups for the RV today.

Cynthia called me and told me a magician we work along side of at a venue year after year has done it again.  Each year he adds new things to his show.  And each year it is something we had performed the year before.  Now they (his group) added fire-eating. I can't wait to see what else he has copied. It is flattery ...right?

We are only half way to our goal.  We have actually been taking the drive slow (10 hours today)...tomorrow we turn up the travel and go for 12-13 hours. Keep us in your prayers.



 UTAH!
 The salt flat in Utah....this one had water covering it and was a pretty shade of torquois.

 Along the hwy are these fence like things in Wyoming an Nebraska .....we've seen them in other states too. What are they? Snow drift related? Wind related?
