Casper, WY to Garryowen, MT

We slept in this morning - it was almost 8:00 when we got up. The rain was over and we had blue skies with a temp of 43° and a great view of the Casper Mountains.

We did have a little rain and we were worried that we would have to get ready to leave in the rain, but it only lasted a few minutes. We left Fort Caspar Campground a few minutes before 10:00 and got back on to I-25 north. We saw this family of Canadian geese just as we were leaving the campground.

The skies were clear, but we had a strong cross wind about 30 - 40 mph. We secure a large beach towel over the windshield of the Vue to keep rocks from damaging it and we had to stop twice to fix it. The first time the towel came loose, we secured it again to the car. But it was only a few miles later that the towel came loose again and we took it off and placed it in the car.

We traveled through open range land and saw a few ranches, some antelope and horse ranches.

We stopped for lunch at a rest area at Kaycee, WY at 11:40 and then continued north on I-25.

Most of I-25 traveled east of the Bighorn Mountains which still had snow on them.

We ran into rain again just north of Buffalo, WY where we left I-25 and went north on I-90. We started out with a temp of 50°, but it dropped to the low 40's when we ran into the rain.
We stopped at an Exxon station in Sheridan to get gas in the RV. We got 49.25 gallons at $3.619 a gallon which came to $178.25 - yea, under $200!

Northern Wyoming and then into Montana changed from open range land with few trees to rolling grass lands and wooded areas.

From Montana

We crossed into Montana at 2:20 and crossed the Little Bighorn River. 

From Montana

We got off I-90 at exit 514 and took Frontage Road back south to 7th Ranch RV Camp. We arrived here at 3:15. We will be here for 2 nights and are getting a 15% discount with our Escapees membership, so it's costing us $70 for both nights.

We are in site A-26 and it is reasonably level. We have full hook-ups (50 amp) and free Wi-fi. I'm using our Verizon service since the campground's Wi-fi signal is low. We tried using our rooftop satellite dish but the wind was blowing too much, so Mike set up our portable dish.

From Montana

Tomorrow is supposed to be partly cloudy and no rain which is terrific since we're going to visit the Little Bighorn Battlefield.
