Day 5 - Still in Cheyenne, Wyoming

The weather this morning was beautiful - cool and crisp and clear!  Temperature was about 60 degrees when we went outside with a stiff wind - enough that I shouldn't have bothered brushing my hair as it was blown wildly about all day.

My plan today is to find the quilt shop in Cheyenne.  The Quilted Corner is in the older part of downtown and is absolutely lovely.  The two ladies running it were friendly and helpful. We talked about my going to the Judy Niemeyer retreat and they mentioned that they had been involved in bringing her to Cheyenne some years ago to do workshops for several of the quilt shops in the surrounding towns. They asked to be remembered to her.  I bought some more fabric for my border quilt (imagine that!) and a couple of fat quarters - one for the bee challenge of a holiday themed fabric (shh - don't tell anyone in the bee) and another fat quarter that is a Wyoming design with the same cowboy that appears on their license plates. I'm not sure that I'll ever do anything with it, but it is a good souvenir for me. This picture doesn't do the colors justice.

We did some other shopping, including a stop at the Verizon store to see what we could do for a hotspot. The internet connections at most campgrounds are HORRIBLE, so I was interested in seeing what was available that would make us independent of their service. We got a whole new plan including the hotspot to travel with for the same amount that we now pay.  Woohoo.  I'm going to be a much happier camper going forward.

Mid-afternoon was rest time for us.  John took a nap and I worked on an appliqué project. Dinner was grilled outside while we sat and enjoyed the 70 degree weather - the wind had died down and the weather was absolutely perfect. This is what we go camping to enjoy. 

Tomorrow it's north again to Sheridan, Wyoming.
