Paducah KY
Wifi so slow don't even know if I will be able to finish this before I get kicked off. I honestly don't know why RV parks don't put in a stronger signal if they are going to advertise Wifi internet at your site !!!
Anyway we made it to Paducah KY and are staying at the Duck Creek Campground. We went to Ryan's for dinner with my cousin Wayne Gibby and his significant other Nancy Gill this evening. I was so nice to meet Nancy and to see Wayne again. We had a nice visit prior to dinner and a nice visit after dinner. They showed us some of the sites in their downtown area. Beautiful murals on the flood wall at the Ohio river. Nice when you have an escorted tour from residents that can tell you the history of a town.
Tomorrow we start towards Memphis TN. Yep....going to Graceland. We will be staying on Elvis Presley Blvd.
I will have to wait to post any pictures as it is just to slow. So until then...........take care and we love ya all !!!

West Yellowstone KOA
Did the upper loop today in Yellowstone National Park. Our tour guide Brad was excellent and very knowledgeable also. He had been a geology major so knew a great deal about all the land and findings in the park. When the day was finished we were the last ones off the bus and he drove us straight to our site. We saw lots of buffalo's, elk and waterfalls and geysers. The elk were laying on the lawn at the resort and walking around the town.

Hardin Montana
Left West Yellowstone today and drove through the mountains, which were very very smokey from fires that were burning in the park. Mountainous and curvy road until we intersected with the interstate. Had a nice spacious spot at the Grandview Campground. Right near the laudromat so we did our stacked up laundry. Opted for one of those $10.00 pizza's from Pizza Hut for dinner.

Rapid City South Dakota
Drove from Hardin Montana through Wyoming and into Rapid City South Dakota today. Found a bargain and stayed at the Foothills Rv Park for only $15.00 for a full hookup.....imagine that ! Drove to Sturgis and found the Full Throttle Saloon. Just had to go there !! South Dakota (in my opinion) is not the most eye appealing state. Very dry and deserty looking. Lots of smoke due to so many wild fires.

Salem South Dakota
Just another driving day across this dry desolate looking land. Still no phone service on my normal phone with boost mobile. I am relying on our Tracfone and sometimes it does not have service either. The wind here was next to hurricane strength today. We stopped at a rest area for a necessity break and it was so strong you could hardly walk into it. I am surprised with the wind blowing at such a gale force that the temperature was 101 degree at its highest today.
Registering 100 degrees
Yep, look who's driving !!
