Mexican food and chasing cattle

From: Delta, UT

Taking a break from riding after a wonderful Mexican lunch in the library.

Made it across the 88 mile desert this morning. We started really well until the headwinds kicked in. It slowed us down quite a bit but we still made good time.

The desert is totally without people. Somehow they graze some cattle there. As we went by, a few cattle chased us for about a mile. We did see one German cyclist going the other way.

It is totally amazing how far you can see and how clear the air is here. I am sure the camera will not do the area justice but I keep taking photos anyway.

Hope to make it to Eureka, UT today (it is getting hot out) and hopefully we will be in Wyoming tomorrow.
