Journal entry:
dear people of the world
Well our truck broke down again and so my mom and dad had to go
to Casper to get it fixed so Tennesse John one of our new friends
drove our team of mules to our next camp which was called Split
Rock.
We traveled on some original ruts and that was neat. Once on the
wagon I fell asleep John fell asleep but the mules just kept on
going butwhen the train stopped they stopped and woke us up it was
funny.
It was windy and dusty at this camp but the wind blew the misquitos
away so we were glad.
We went to a trailer and showered for $2 a piece and then we went
to this town called Lamont where it said populations 3 and had dinner
at a cafe called grandmas I ate a cheese sandwich and a chocolate
malt and then a silver mint bar for dessert.
Well this is a stuffed Daniel Whitaker ina sagebrush field at Split
Rock Wyoming.
