On A Lighter Note

Michael’s post surgery appointment went well, all clear and by 12:30pm we had the Jeep hooked up and were heading out of the hospital parking lot. 

Last night Michael spent a lot of time looking at weather reports and our usual route from Billings to Casper was not looking good.  I90 freeway webcams showed roads snow packed and icy.  So, we decided to take another route and go through Rapid City, SD—this direction adds less than a hundred miles to our trip and we traveled on roads like this today-- We drove until just after 7pm trying to get ahead of any other storms.  We are parked in a South Dakota visitor center, no one else here but us, no signs saying we can’t park here—tucked in for the night.  Enjoyed a dinner of homemade spaghetti, bed soon.  There is Emmi traveling in style.
