Thayne & Jackson Hole

Monday, Sept. 23-30,
We decided to stay in the RV park for the day to do some housekeeping and laundry, since the office was closed when we pulled in we had to wait until 10:00 to check in, it would have been too late to drive up to Jackson.
Tuesday,
We drove into Jackson to look around the town.  We left Luci at the only doggie day care in town.  We walked into the visitor center where we got the "scoop" on Jackson vs Jackson Hole.  The town square was cool, at all four corners were antler arches, we were looking for a geo cache in the square but there were too many muggles.  The wind came up, the weather forecast was for it to get colder.  We picked up Luci (if you have to ask you can't afford it) the bill was $30.00 for about 4 hours.  She did have a good time, the rest of the evening she was very quiet.  On our way back to Thayne we were amazed at the fall foliage, yellows, reds, peachy and orange set amongst the rock formations.
Wednesday,
The thunder storm they forecast hit with a vengeance about 3:00 am with strong wind and rain.  It continued on until about 6, when we opened the blinds the snow level was about 500 feet up the hills from us.  Brrrrrr  they say tomorrow will be colder.  I haven't gotten my blogs out due to very low cell strength but was worse after the storm.
Thursday,
We have the nicest neighbors in Salem, Brian and Susan, fortunately I'd given them a key to the house before we left.  All this cold weather I discovered I had left three coats in the coat closet, they were kind enough to pack them up and send it to us priority mail.  Thank you, thank you B & S.
Needless to say we didn't stray too far from the RV park, did some laundry, Gary got a haircut and a flu shot and picked up a couple of geo caches, the wind was blowing and it was COLD!
Friday,
We are heading out of this cold country.
We woke up to light snow, it wasn't sticking at 6000 feet but we had three passes to go over that were 7000 feet plus.  We headed for Rawlins, Wy. over 300 miles away.  It was even colder there!  Spent the night and woke up to 28 degrees and wind.  I want out of Wyoming, note to self, don't go to Wyoming in the fall.  We picked up a geo cache at historic Wyoming State Penintentiary, ended the evening watching a lopsided college football game.
Saturday
Off to warmer weather, Denver is70 degrees!  Ahhhh.   We had a tail wind all the way to Laramie. We are staying at Buckley Air Force Base in Aurora, a suburb SE of Denver proper.
Sunday,
Not a good day, I woke up with some kind of a bug, spent most of the day laying around and watching football. There is a multipurpose path around the base so Gary went for a bike ride.
Monday,
Bug is gone!  I helped Gary wash and dry the coach.  We learned our lesson last spring in Barstow, after washing the coach it dried with water spots everywhere.  I love going to the commissary at military bases, the prices are a little lower but the atmosphere is just "different"  We BBQ'd  a steak that turned out perfect.  We signed up Luci for day care tomorrow, I asked this time how much, we're going into Denver to check the city out and take the US Mint tour.
