Tuesday's events, 7/6

Left Worland, WY about 8:30 heading east on US16 toward I-90 via the Powder Rim Pass. Temp as we left was 54 degrees.. I think this would normally be a great ride..........except on this day. As we entered the pass and started climbing, it got colder and mistier and foggier. By the time we reached to summit, it was 36 degrees, foggy and rainy. Nice! We couldn't wait to start the downward trek to get out of that miserable weather. As soon as we got to Buffalo, WY at the bottom of the other side, we stopped at McDonald's and warmed up with their delicious coffer and mocha.

Continuing on I-90 east we continued to see pockets of light rain until late afternoon. Ended the day in Chamberlain, SD. Very nice little town with a nice Best Western. Patti would love it.

This was the last day for any mountain pass riding as the rest of the trip is interstate all the way home.
