I've loved to read your articles this past week, Lee. I used to live in Vernal, and now live in AZ. So hearing of things from that part of the country has been enjoyable.

When you entered Duchesne, it's too bad you didn't go down "old" Highway 40 from Duchesne to Bridgeland. It's a completely different ride than the "new" Highway 40: farms, hay fields, an old hay derek or two, even an old 1930's era bridge. It reminds me of Highway 89 between Fairview and Mt. Pleasant in some ways. The people are a lot the same too: rural Utah Americana at its best.

Great job on both the ride and the articles!
