Eye Doctor Visit

About a week ago I woke up with a wierd distortion in my right eye. It appeared that curved lines were in my vision and would not go away. Thinking it was a temporary condition, I lived with these "lines" in my vision for several days before contacting an eye doctor here in Cody. When these kinds of  things happen, I try to self diagnose the problem by researching the symptoms on the internet. The closest thing I could find is what is called "eye floaters" and that is a condition for which there is no cure and results from a change in your eye chemistry as a result of aging. It could also mean that something else is happening that could be more serious. I contacted a local Opthamologist and will go this morning to have a Retina examination to determine the cause of my problem. Results will be known later.

Our last day of the work week is today so we will be planning for our fun time beginning tomorrow. We still are looking at a trip to either the Tetons or Riverton. My guess is that the first trip will be to Riverton as Josie has been having Casino withdrawal symptoms for a while now. Maybe not.

We went to Greybull yesterday and saw 2 groups of the wild mustangs on the way there. The first group was seen in the same area as last week and we were able to get a little closer this time:



The town of Greybull was a little disappointing but we did see another, much larger group of wild mustangs, but they were too far away to get good photos. On the trip back home, we saw these Pronghorn Antelope that were grazing fairly close to the highway:


It was a very busy day at work and both Josie and I had to work a little later in order to balance our financials for the day. Looking forward to tomorrow...
