106 miles, 2418 feet of climbing. Rolling terrain, warm and sunny with a tailwind all day. Departure temp was 56, and it was 92 we we got into Lusk. Soon after we arrived we were treated to the annual pioneer Parade, right in front of our hotel. It wa different tha any parade I've seen. It started with horse and carriages followed Indians on horses. Next were antique cars filled by motorcycles and tractors.
That night several of us went to the big production, Legend od Rawhide. It was a story about the early pioneers passing through Wyoming on their way to discover gold. One young whiten man shot an Indian sqaw which started a war with the Suix tribe. At the end the whiten man confesses and he gets skinned. It was quite a production and interesting to say the least. Unfortunately it lasted a long time and we didn't get back to the hotel until 10pm which for usis really late.
