Cowboy Bill

Met an interesting character in Riverside who had been of the name Cowboy Bill, and 82 yr old holding down three jobs, two of which were in the tourist information office, and the local museum. He was a retired from construction, but he gave me plenty information on the locality before i set off for Kremmling.
After a bit of a pull up the hills after riverside adn saw two bald eagles perched on an electrical pole by the road. Another day that was broken into 2 sections, one was 50 miles, and the second was 60, not by choice you understand. As i crossed into Colorado the thunder clouds in the photo were chasing me into Walden the town close to the midpoint. I tried talk my way into a meal being enjoyed by a vintage rally car group in Walden. They all sat around with there two seater open top cars enjoying lunch as i shuffled into a very nice diner in the town. And as karma would have it, next i heard that thunder shower start, first a rattle or two, then the hail let rip and pounded the place. And from my seat in the diner i could here two seater, open top sports cars high-tail it out of town.
Most of the roads are great here, but some have a crack every few meters, that varies from about 3-4 meters to 10 meters. And every ime you pass it just makes a jolt, a bit like the old Killarney- Mallow rail line when you felt every joining of the track.
