The Lord hath Spoken!

Since Fresno State lost, I’ll be heading to Fresno arriving Friday, Oct 13. Yes. Friday the 13th! If the Lord had blessed the Bulldogs w/ a victory, I would be making plans for the upcoming Utah State game. Now? Who cares now! 😭 National ranking gone. Winning streak gone!

So be it.

Instead I will be stopping at or near casinos on the way to Fresno, but mostly just pit stops on the way to get my stuff. And see if I can talk to my ex and/or her father to get the ball rolling so I can be out of debt. Not sure about that idea yet.

Tomorrow I want to look around Wyoming. I have some Google Map shortcuts I wang to travel to.

Day 1

I started out this morning expecting to be on the road by noon. It was 4:30. 🤦‍♂️

I hate driving at night. I wonder if I can get something that wouldn’t blind me with oncoming headlights? Enhance night vision, but not too much!

I’m relaxing in my room. 2nd floor. Brought up my backpack and electrical cords (grocery type) bag. Like a book bag. Also I lugged up my Jackery to charge and my overnight bag. I need a real suitcase.

It’s going to be in the 30s overnight in Laramie! I brought my Fresno State coat. I have a room booked in Centennial. I read a James Michener book Centennial. I thought that was in South Dakota? I’ll have to look!

I just discovered some saved Google Maps locations. As I remember it: My Dad was looking at Google Maps overhead views of his family home/farm in Wyoming.

So I’m going to spend a day in Centennial, see what I can find out about family history stuff. Maybe get up to Wind River.

Road Trip is Go!

Next t step is getting my car in travel ready. I want:

Oil change

4 adequate tires for mostly freeway driving. 30 mph dirt road capable. Last 10,000-50,000 miles or 1 year more.

Fix the door latch with something better than duct tape

Check transmission fluid

🤞Fix the windshield wiper fluid pump

Check main battery.

Less than $1500

After that is done, I can go!

I have to be back in Abilene by late October for dental work.

So. I may not get to the Wyoming game. Car has to be ready, but eclipse and Utah State game are definitely on the map. From there? TBD
