Red Rock RV and Camping Park

IMG_8607We headed out of Cody, WY, this morning right at 8:00.  It was only a 168 mile journey to get to Red Rock RV and Camping Park, but it took us about six hours to get there.  Thank goodness, the winds were calm, but I had the windshield wipers going for most of the trip.  The rains were light, but it wasn’t fast traveling on the two lane highway.  We had to drive through mountains and a good share of Yellowstone National Park.  We stuck to our plan to just drive through Yellowstone without stopping to see anything.  The driving was actually a lot easier than going through the Big Horn Mountains.
IMG_8603I really like the site I’m in, and the rain held off long enough for me to get all the basic hookups taken care of.  Then the rain began in earnest, so I spent a couple of hours getting all the inside set up done for an extended stay.

Thanks for stopping by….talk to you later,  Judy
