MS Trip days 10-16

Welcome back! Our time here in Gillette is coming to an end, and we hit the road tomorrow. The Family Motor Coach convention went well; we learned a lot, met a bunch of really nice people, and got new ideas for future trips.

We’ll need to explore Gillette more thoroughly next time through here, but we did see the local laundromat twice…it got a score of 4 out of 5. We drove up to Devils Tower today; it was a great drive and a nice hike. No wildlife today except for prairie dogs…

As previously reported, Leila spent her first few days here driving around in a golf cart, surviving 95 degree weather. She volunteered to help make sure attendees received their welcome bags as they arrived. Over the course of three days the team welcomed 800 RV’s and their occupants. Busy, they were.

As for Greg, he stayed busy. He served as a seminar monitor four times, and played the clarinet in a group called the Frustrated Maestros…the group entertained during the coffee/donut hour. We had lots of fun with both, and have the “silence your personal devices” speech down.

Sunday begins the drive towards Nebraska…more details soon!

FMCA celebrated its 60th anniversary with this convention, and sent attendees back to the 60’s. Peace!
Which brings us back to the present day. Devils Tower is really spectacular
Have to admit they gave us fair notice. It’s also fair to say that we didn’t see any snakes
It was amazing to watch rock climbers working
The love of the author’s life rocking on…
