From there we headed North on US 191 to the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area. Very beautiful (pictures). Lots more "twisties" and ups and downs. We then left 191 and turned on to UT 44 and WY 414 on the way to Mountain View, WY. On the way, we saw miles and miles of the most beautiful light blue/green buttes and sand outcroppings. Apparently, the sand contains copper oxide that makes it turn greenish. Very striking and unique. Unfortunately, there was virtually no shoulder on the road and no pull offs - so no pictures.
Mountain View gave us a bit of a jolt as they were repaving 10 miles of WY 414, Most of it returned to dirt and sand in the process! What fun - so much for the wash job the car and the bike got in Montrose! From Mountain View we took I-80 right into Evanston. We arrived at 3:30 pm and are safely ensconced in the Comfort Inn. "Goldie" (the Harley) is under her cover for the night!

Great pictures, guys! Can't believe you're already in WY. Please give Alice a big hug for me and tell her I miss her.
