Friday morning... Dale had an appointment in the morning... so I finished some packing, last minute clean-ups....
our realtor came by around 11:30.... so getting the house on the market.
We got on the road about 2pm.... on the way to our new home in Cody.
There has been a big fire (as I posted earlier) about 35 miles west of Cody - just east of the Yellowstone NP entrance. We expected heavy smoke for our arrival (after all the smoke that had been in Cheyenne on Thursday that was being attributed to the Gunbarrel Fire). To our surprise - even though the fire
continues to burn in the wilderness - Cody was pretty clear. About 62,000 acres have burned to date.

The camper in the bottom of the picture is Dale ahead of me.
Buck did great on the trip - just sat there in the back and layed his head on the armrest by my arm for the 7 hours....
We are getting rain today (Sunday)... which, is coming straight down - not horizontal (my Cheyenne friends understand exactly what I am talking about)!!!! But hopefully the rain rain will help the fire efforts.
The pictures don't do the colors justice - and this was through my very dirty winshield as I was driving down the road near Meteesee (just south of Cody).

This morning, in Cheyenne, the smell of smoke was very strong. Alexis woke me up at 7am because she was worried that something was onfire here.
Glad you got to Cody safely!
Yes, the hamsters keep surprizing us - they are endless work!
