Day 4, in the shadows of the Rockies, Lamar, CO

Good evening who ever might be out there. Have to make a correction to day one's Blog, the starting mileage was 35787 from Uncle Bobbie's. I reported 35747, that was when I got gas in 21801. I've made the change, Starting mile were 35787.

At the present we are settled in the Holiday Inn Express in Lamar, CO. Today we went through Hutchinson, Dodge City, Garden City and several others. All our travel today was on route 50. For the sake of those of you who are mileage guessing, our trip yesterday to Emporia, KS was mostly down routes 4 & 75 to 50. Like I mentioned previously, you have until midnight tomorrow to get your totals in.

Today was miles and miles of nothingness, punctuated only by Flatulence on Uncle Bobbies part. We stopped at numerous Historical Markers and became aware of their significance.

I have to go back to yesterday and the Sister Mary Deloris act alike. This woman obviously came from Germany where her father was some type of Storm Trooper. Her Vows were to be nasty, certainly not charitable. The Benedictines, known for their

As we approached the grave of all the Nuns who had passed away, Uncle Bobbies only regret was that we did not stop and pick up black and white paint. The markers, all in a row, if painted, could have been true marching Penguins.

Tomorrows departure will be delayed a bit for the repair of a flat tire in the parking lot. The front desk called a bit ago to make us aware of the fact.

I know this is short, no pics or anything, but the eyes are heavy. I'll say good night until tomorrow from the Springs.

Good night Mary Agnes, Maggie, Bailey and the chickens.

Semper Fi to all, Go Navy beat Army!!!
