RV Mountain Adventure, Part 3 - Wyoming, Seminoe, Horsetooth

After the Black Hills we drove through Wyoming towards the Seminoe Reservoir in the south-central part of the state. Along the way we saw a sign for Hell's Gate, so we had to stop. The gate was a gap in the hills where the oregon trail passed. We parked in a seemingly abandoned Mormon mission ranch or something, but then a dude in a white shirt and tie rolled up to us in a golf cart. We were bracing for the conversion speech or the "get the hell out of here", but instead he asked us if we had seen Napoleon Dynamite. It turns out he is the grandfather of the writer/director of the movie and even appeared in the movie as a FAA milk-tasting judge. He must not get groups of young men out there very often. He was more than happy to pose with Grant for a photo (by Shaun). He shared some good stories and then we hit the road again.
