Antelope Island state park

We are camping at Antelope Island st. pk.  close to Salt Lake city, Utah.  This island is out in the Great salt Lake connected by a 7 mile causeway.  I am getting a very weak signal out here as it is probably over 10 miles to the nearest cell tower.   we drove around the island seeing all the bison, antelope and other wildlife.  It is an extremely beautiful place surrounded by mountains.  The weather is perfect in the 80's.   We went swimming in the salt lake,  or maybe I should say floating.  The salt lake is a lot saltier than the ocean.   They say the ocean is 3 %  and this salt lake varies from 8 to 26% salinity.  This means that you can float on your back very easy.

Green river, Wy Tex's travel camp

Yesterday we continued west on I80 past many windmills and lots of pronghorn antelope, stopping at the highest point on I80, 8640 ft.  where we visited the Lincoln highway rest area and museum.  This section was part of the old highway US 30.  We left there with intentions of seeing wild horses around Rock Creek, WY.  The loop was a back stone road so we went on.  Stayed the night in Green River at a crowded park.

Now where did I put my bear pepper spray

Camping in Cheyenne, WY

Stayed overnight in Cheyenne at the AB campground.   The only unusual thing seen on our travels yesterday, was Barb seeing a one hump camel grazing out in a field.  I missed it.  Ate pulled pork at campground restaurant and walked all over the campground.   We will be on our way in a few hours heading for Salt lake city.  No pictures today.
