On the Road Again


We were sure lucky on our return to the Foothills. Cool (high 60s) and rain. It was great weather to get our Spring cleaning done and get ready to roll. We got back Thurs and on Fri morning John wanted to go to Best Buy just in case they had received any Ipad2s. Well they had just gotten two. Both were sold immediately with John getting one of them. He loves it. It is much easier to take with us when we go somewhere and we can Skype the kids anytime. We just take our little Mifi with us for internet access. Before leaving the Foothills, we stopped in at the In & Out for one last burger. Because of the rain, the trees were in bloom at the mall. It was beautiful. Then on the 15th we hit the road traveling west.

Black Hills of South Dakota

This Pronghorn Antelope had his picture taken last week at Custer State Park, however, we are seeing many of them on either side of I-90 as we travel thru Wyoming to West Yellowstone. Will stop at Flying J in a few minutes to top up gas tank. The Buffalo Roundup yesterday morning was fun. We got up early and took an employees entrance into Custer SP. Dusty but fast and easy. Believe there may have been about 200 buffalo stampeded thru the valley and into the coral. The fun was watching them refuse to go in and doubling back towards the cowboys. Turning, spreading out and rushing like crazy to get away. We met two really nice couples from Chicago who were touring on their motorbikes. And we enjoyed wandering down to the corals after the roundup. Warm and sunny so washed the car when we got back to the cg.
