Earlier Departure Scheduled

We were informed that we wouldn't be scheduled to work on Friday so we decided to leave one day earlier and leave here on Friday. It allows us to shorten the first day's trip so we can now stop at the Devil's Tower Monument in Eastern Wyoming. Our plan now has us staying in Sundance, WY, on Friday night and then moving on to Sturgis, SD, on Saturday and staying there for 2 nights. We will see Mt Rushmore and spend some time in Deadwood and see some other local attractions and then leave Sturgis on Monday morning. Monday night we will stay in Sioux Falls SD, Tuesday in Grimes, IA (near Des Moines), and arrive at Patty's in Naperville on Wednesday.

The excitement is building and we had the rig washed and waxed yesterday. This morning we will gas up the vehicles, do some final laundry and wrap up some other small details before we can leave. Josie's final day of work was yesterday but I was asked to work today - along with Karen - to cover the front desk for the final day of the cabins. The cabins will all be closed for the season after tonight.

The weather is holding in a beautiful pattern, so we anticipate no problems with bad weather, at least through Monday. So ends the entry for today - the next to last entry from Cody, WY...
