Location: Pacific Springs, Wyoming -

Summary: Geography lesson.

Journal entry: Dear people of the world,

Today just after lunch we passed the continental divide I learned that this is where the water starts to go towards the Pacific ocean.

We also went through south pass which is the highest elevation that we have been

The animals all did pretty good. Some friends invited us to a movie I haven't seen one since April so I am excited.

Well this is Dan on a windy hilltop in Wyoming.
