This morning was foggy, windy and chilly, so we had a slow start to our day, but it was okay.  We wanted to go to the museum in Sundance and get the passport for geo-caching, and see what we needed to do.  We had to get ten caches that they listed and every cache had a password, that we needed to register on the passport.  We got all ten in Sundance.  They took us to interesting places and gave us some exercise.  Tomorrow we will try to get the other coin and that involves going to Devil's Tower, which is northwest of here.  We'll do the loop to make it a full day, and more fun caching. 

This geo-cache took us to the statue of the Sundance Kid.  I'll call this photo, 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid'!  He was a scoundrel and spent more time in jail than outside. 

Another geo-cache took us to the top of Warren Peak, where there is a lookout tower to watch for wildfires in the area.  It's very pretty up here, but photos didn't show it.  The Birch and Aspen trees are very golden here, so mixed in the pines, it was pretty.  This is located northwest of Sundance about 6 miles up. 

                                    This is the old bank in Sundance, that dates back to 1912.

We ended our day at the Longhorn Saloon, where they had sixteen beers on tap.  It was a beautiful place and from what we hear, it's a good eating place.  We have bean and ham soup to eat!   We met a couple from south of Racine, that had moved out here about 12 years ago.  They love it here, and I can understand why.  It's pretty laid back.
