Day 4 (10/28) A step millions of years in the past

The route for today wasn't very long, because we stopped at a fossil quarry!
Our view waking up was big sky's, and long trains.

We started off the day going the wrong way towards the quarry, and ran into two kindhearted locals that showed us the right way to go.


Fossil hunting was the priority for the day, so we took lunch in the quarry.

Sweetpea in all her glory.

We ended up finding a bunch of fossils! It was totally a childhood dream come true. We excitedly packed them away before getting a good picture of the haul, but trust me, it's awesome. 

The quarry was just a bit north of the tiny town, kemmerer.



Entering Green River, Wyoming.


Ended the night in a motel with a beautiful view of sunset. 

Gotta love some rice and beans.
