Before bed last night we took a look at the map and decided
we were so close to Nebraska we might as well add it to our list of States we
visited. So, we headed east on Hwy 14 towards Sidney, Nebraska. We arrived in Sidney only to find the entire
main street being dug up and no way to get the MH through town, so much for our
visit to a town in Nebraska. What we saw of Nebraska, we saw from Interstate 80
as we made our way to Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Jim liked the water tower made to look like a coffee pot.
Having no plans made for our time in Wyoming we took
advantage of a Rest area just on the edge of Cheyenne and did some internet
searches for National Forest and BLM lands in Wyoming. We didn’t find any National land close by,
but we did locate a City Park in Wheatland that had RV spots with electricity
for FREE for three day stays.
With plans made, we sat back to watch a little TV before
bed. I love Rest areas close to large
towns as we can get TV reception and usually at least spotty internet
reception. As the sun set we fired up the generator and turned on some lights
and that is when the fun began! Within
minutes of turning on the lights we had at least two dozen moths fluttering
around our heads and the light fixtures.
Zoe thought it was great fun, I did not!
I think my estimate of two dozen is pretty close because before bed I
had done away with nine of them and Jim got rid of way more than I did.
Once we had that taken care of we breathed a sigh of relief
and headed for bed. Jim didn’t take long
to fall asleep but I lay there for a while worrying about fuzzy little critters
crawling on me in the night. I think I was just starting to drift off when I
began to hear little fluttering wings and fuzzy bodies bumping into the bedroom
window. I sat up and sure enough there
were five of the creepy things in the bedroom window. I was so tired after battling them earlier
that it took me just minutes to slaughter all five of them, Jim never even
wiggled.
