You may be wondering where the Labor-day-Lovers were on the fifth of September. Well, Wyoming. And Idaho. They actually crossed the border a total of four times. And why you may ask? Camping, fishing, hiking and going to Burger King.
It all started long after sunset on the fourth, where the traveling two joined forces with the bilingual bunch, Chris and Naty Jankowski, and jumped into the car looking for a green Wyoming pasture in which to camp. They thought they'd found one, but in the morning the truth was discovered. They had camped on a rocky spot of weeds, and now knew why the previous night was so uncomfortable. But that was nothing that a morning camp fire couldn't fix.

After responsibly putting out the fire completely, Alastair and Laleinia took photographs and left tracks. A five minute Idaho fishing expedition was really boring, and so it was to Wyoming again, in search of the world famous Darby Wind Caves.

It was a long and adventurous hike up the rocky mountains of the mid-west. Shoes got dirty, water got poured on heads. Sticks were beat, rocks were thrown, and bears were scared of the noise. After miles and miles of hiking, not to mention navigating through a waterfall, the wind caves were entered. And we left about four to five minutes later. Been there, done that.

All in all, it was a long and beautiful hike, but when it was over, Burger King beckoned, as did the thought of being home, and so with one last smile and a photograph, it was back on the road for the four of us.
