Day 5: Motels, Motels Everywhere

Ben's Blog: Day 5
Woke up in a motel. Not always a good thing. I apologize for yesterday's lack of factual events. That's because nothing exciting happened. In fact, not really anything at all happened. We drove. For hours.

This morning our destination was Casper, Wyoming, with a stop midday at some historical site or other. So far it's pretty cool. We're presently on a "Rover", which is an open vehicle for tourists, moving at high speeds down a hot, windy road. I can barely hear the tour guide over the wind, the sound of Jonathan making random noise, and some horrific wailing, which I have been told is my brother singing. Ouch.

[Truthful Interjection #8: Chris actually does okay at singing. If he tries. Most of the time he doesn't try though. I'm seriously considering throwing him off the back of the vehicle.]

I really hope I don't lose my fedora in all this wind. (It's funny, because as I wrote that, my hat whipped off my head, and flew back several yards.)

[Truthful Interjection #9: At this point I dropped the iPad, got yelled at by my father, and was forbidden from using it for the rest of the tour. Sorry.]

After the tour, we climbed in the car, and moved on. Our next stop was Glenrock, home of a dinosaur museum. Surprisingly, I actually enjoyed it. (Don't tell Mom and Dad I said that.) We stayed there for... I don't know, an hour? Then more driving... *sigh*

Final destination: A Luxury Inn in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Yay. More Motels. Excuse me for not jumping with joy. Bright side, however. No camping (Mom and Dad's original plan.) Which means wi-fi. BONUS! That's about all for today, guys.
