Riding up the Wet Mountain valley is just knocked-out gorgeous. The wind is giving me the impetus to stop often for pictures. I met Laurie, who helped me find some water when the store in Gardner was unexpectedly closed. I had enough water to get to Westcliff, but less of a safety margin than I would have liked. In Westclffe, I met Ruthie and Kerri, who let me clean up in the local church and gave me a bottle of frozen Gatorade. I'm still feeling fresh, so I'm having a BLT, using the wifi and fixing to head up to Salida. I'm in tourist country and I'm learning to expect the cars with Texans plates to stink at sharing the road.
