Well, we made it.

 

Well, we made it. We got here a few days early because we had to hightail it out of Yellowstone. Beautiful sunny day and about 85F. We got here around 11AM so lots of time to set up and start organizing. 

Two days later and we're just about finished. Window shades, tire covers and awnings make sure we control the sun; it's been around 90F since we arrived. Now we're ready to start enjoying the activities. I've already gone golfing (didn't do too bad for the first time) and enjoyed a Hamburger Bash, so we're jumping right in.

A quick review of our trip south would seem to be the best way to wrap up our adventure this fall. First day of the trip with a major breakdown. Is this a sign of things to come? Who knew at this point.

Fixed and back on schedule. Next adventure was our Agawa Canyon train trip. A nice relaxing day; I didn't have to drive, bonus. 

First stop in the US. This was the only RV resort to date that we got turned into the park and couldn't make the turn. We had to unhook the Jeep so I could back up and make the turn. Didn't like it. 

Worlds only corn palace was next. We do see the sights, don't we. 

Wall Drugs in South Dakota is just too cool to miss.

Remnants of the big snow storm at Rapid City. Not really a highlight is it.

Another chance to see Mount Rushmore from Custer State Park. A great drive! 

We got to stay in a pioneer military fort at Casper Wyoming. 

Cleared the Continental Divide before heading down hill toward Yellowstone Park.

Saw Old Faithful in Yellowstone. 

Also saw hundreds of geysers and buffalo. Yellowstone was worth the drive.

City of Rocks in Idaho was unique. 

The drive into Nevada was awe inspiring.

Exploring the area around the Ponderosa Ranch was a lot of fun. 

From Virginia City 

To Reno 

To Lake Tahoe

Lastly, our trip to Yosemite Park was highlighted by the drive to get there. 

A great drive and the scenery was awesome. We went from here to another stop and on to Hemet. That's a quick review of our trip, not a bad drive I think. I'll bet you're wishing I had done this before and saved reading all those blog postings, huh. Well, we're all settled in so any blog postings from here on may be few and infrequent. But check once in awhile just in case we do something interesting. Keep safe.
