Not too much exciting stuff to report today, just a long and scenic 500 miles that crossed me over into Pacific Time.  Utah was almost as beautiful as Colorado!  The picture below is an example of the ridiculousness I was witnessing the whole way to Salt Lake City.  I had intended to stay in SLC tonight with one of my brother's old friends, but after I couldn't get a hold of him I decided to press onward to the Nevada state line. Tonight I am staying in a Motel 6 in Wendover, UT.  Wendover is a small casino town which is half located in Nevada, and the other half in Utah.  It's only about 4 miles long, but contains like 10 casinos and 20 motels.  The picture of the gas pump is from a gas station here in Wendover.  Notice the odd grades of gas.  I don't know what type of car calls for 85, but I have been seeing it on pumps for the past thousand miles.  Most gas stations I've seen also don't go higher than 91, so I guess the Midwest hates BMWs, Mercedes, etc.  Tomorrow I make it to Reno, and Friday I'll finally be in California!  I'm getting pretty sick of driving...ready to ride a bike already.

85? 88? WTF!?
