Today we slept in until 7:30, so that we could have a small rest from yesterday’s sojourn over Wolf Creek Pass. We set off around 8:15 and racked up about 40 miles before lunch at a small restaurant in Alamosa, Colorado. While we were eating, we spoke to a man who seemed very interested in our journey across America. He told us that we should get some protection… and not like helmets- he meant a gun. He told us that there were dogs, bears……………………and………………..aliens ravaging the streets of Alamosa! He told us that he didn’t believe in aliens until he saw his cattle disappearing- and their organs were being taken. Obviously- to anyone with a brain- the only rational explanation is aliens! We bid him adieu and left the café. After another 20 miles he arrived at our hotel in Fort Garland. They only had one smoke free room- so obviously Ed and Jerry called seniority and shoved us into the smokey room. We grabbed some Pizza Bites for dinner- and went to bed early so that we could ride over the pass while it’s still cool tomorrow.
