62 miles to Stratton, Colorado
Our last full day in Colorado. Another day with wind blowing across the road but not as strong as yesterday. And we only had to get to mile 37 when we were going to turn south and then have the wind at our back. Also fewer rolling hills. We broke camp and were on the road at 6:45am. We wanted to make some headway before the stronger winds arrived. Also today, we passed a small grocery store at mile 39. This was the main grocery store serving 4 surrounding communities and was the size of a small Turkey Hill convenience store back home. Today was a good day, a pleasant ride.
This is wheat harvesting season around here. Along the road we often saw huge harvesters being transported from one farm to another (picture below - forgive my finger in the frame!).
