to play Kramer.... all week I've been teasing fate with my fuel consumption and just about got busted this evening. Leaving Evanston after my crop (and she gave me what I asked for!) I thought I'd skip the gas stop and maybe catch a couple of exits and roll gas and dinner together. Ooops, rolled into Echo with 9.9miles on the reserve and there's the gas station....CLOSED.
BTW the pic is as taken..no photoshop...the sky is that blue.
Some nice people over at the Kozy Cafe (cliky) next door help set me straight (17.6miles, 3.9gal to fill) and I called it quits at Heber.
Those weird fences along 189? Snow fences....
