Day 42 - Up to the mountains...

Gillette WY to Buffalo WY

The ride today was not that long, and not that exciting, as we made it in with only minor delays, I had a second flat tire in two days.  The St. Luke's church bought us some pizzas, and had an XBox, which kept us all entertained for most of the night.  I also uploaded some pictures, and got some internet surfing done, so the day overall was pretty uneventful.  We did get our first glimpse of big mountains today, we think they are the Big Horn Mtns, and we got to ride almost right up to them today, tomorrow we will follow the base of them north, and the next day, cross them on the way to Yellowstone.
