We are ALMOST home!

Wow - less than a week ago we were in northern Wyoming. After we left you in Yellowstone, we drove to Buffalo, WY via Cody and Sheridan, travelling on Hwy 14. Between Shell and Burgess Junction - it SNOWED! We knew our travel time was getting short as a couple of mornings waking up to 24 degrees was not our kind of summer! That evening we stayed at the Indian Campground which will get 5 stars from us and we ate at the Bozeman Trail House. Dinner was good, but the company was real cowboys - mud and boots and all.

From Buffalo, we drove to Hill City, South Dakota in the Black Hills. Oh my, this place is gorgeous! I don't care how old you are, put this on your bucket list. We stayed there for four days and could have spent double that time to see everything we wanted to see. From our pictures, you will see that we thoroughly enjoyed every minute, even when is was raining and cold (in the Badlands, which is desert)! Yesterday, we washed the motorhome (understand that this is at least a $30 investment) and the the tow car to only drive through driving rain storms in southern Wyoming today on our way to Loveland, CO. Oh well, that's what makes this a blog. If everything went as planned, it would be boring!

This weekend, we will leave the RV parked in Loveland and drive through Estes Park and Rocky Mountain Natl Park to stay with our friends, Deb and Kent, for the weekend. After that, we will stay in Colorado Springs (where Anna spent 9 years of her formative years) and visit friends, Pat and Delaina in Monument. We plan to leave Colorado Springs on Tuesday morning and drive 750 miles straight east toward home. We think that is two days, so this may be our last post until we reach home. Thanks so much for following us!
