Interesting happenings on the I-80
Morning found us at The Wyoming Frontier Prison: Under Lock & Key since 1901. It was closed but it did not stop us from peeking in windows and wandering the grounds.
As we headed east, we went a whole 3 miles to the town of Sinclair. In 1925, the entire town was built for the oil refinery. It is still there and seemed to be very active today. It was in Sinclair that we would spend the next five hours of our day, hanging out in the neighborhood park. At 3:14 AM, Interstate 80, the only way east, was closed due to heavy snows and winds. Trucks lined the highway, city streets and most empty lots. It was incredible but somewhat festive, too.
It was a nice day to spend relaxing in a park and once the police gave us the go ahead, it was smooth sailing. We are spending tonight in Sidney, NE in the only Cabela's campground in the world. Cabela's is "The World's Foremost Outfitters" and pretty much most men's dream store. AND gear for Turkey Hunting is on sale... hmmm.
