The Badlands to Cody

Today was a driving day and man was it long (but not as long as some of the other drives so something to look forward to).  But we made it and arriving at Buffalo Bill State Park was well worth it.  No rain here and just a great camp site with the snow capped mountains in the background. 

Update on the family truckster:
Total miles driven: 774
Total gallons of gas: 91

It made it over our first mountain pass taking HWY 16 over the big horn mountains.  The truckster only managed 35mph on a few uphill climbs but for the most part it handled it well.  The first climb in complete fog cloud cover was the worst but once it cleared up and we were heading down it was smooth sailing. 



Here's some photo's I took today:

Scenic Overlook Big Horn Mountains.

We all enjoyed the snow.

Luke walking the line at our campsite.  He also walked the line with my patience a good portion of the ride.

Frozen pizza never tasted so good.

View from our campsite looking out over the lake and snow capped mountains, oh yeah and a rainbow thrown in for good measure.  Just amazing scenery and this isn't even supposed to be the good stuff yet.
