And then there is Grand Junction; aside from the street # IMO so haphazard with every Big Box / franchise retail outlet to have ever come into existence. It reminds me of one big modern “Rendezvous” site or perpetual urban flea market.

Been through Rawlins several times and always stop at the State Prison for the tour and gift shop. Too, there is a great dive bar down town.
