Laramie, WY

By the time we got to Laramie it was dusk already. However, it didn't really matter because Laramie's skate park was closed because the concrete had recently been repaired, buffed, and waxed. But we drove all the way to Wyoming to skate so us and a local hopped the fence and skated until it was too dark to see. Then it was off to Cheyenne. In between Laramie and Cheyenne right off I80, at a rest stop, is a monument to Abraham Lincoln, so naturally we stopped and took some pictures in front of the giant statue of the 16th President. By the time we got to Cheyenne it was way too late to skate the park, so we just stopped at a Super Walmart to stock up on food and water and hit the road again. Our plan was to spend the night at a rest stop as soon as we got to Nebraska, but due to a mix up involving the mistaking of "Next Rest Area 75 Miles" and "Next Rest Area 7.5 Miles" we ended up driving 100 plus miles into Nebraska.
