January 2006 - Alaska Quest

Alabama to Wyoming

The plan was to make a fortune on the nickel slots at Bally's to pay for the trip.  Didn't work!  Several forest fires were active in Arkansas and Oklahoma.  I was able to get a picture of one of the fires about a mile off Interstate 40.  I saw many deer and elk at night as I traveled from Colorado toward Wyoming.  Great trip, so far!
