Our Plans So Far...

We have begun to finalize our plans for our trip to the "Old West and back."

We are planning on going up the 5 to Oregon, a place callled "Whaler's Rest" which Kim visited in her youth. It's on the coast and we're there for 3 nights. Then we cross Wahington and Idaho on the 90 east, and camp outside Butte Montanta (a place called Anaconda). From there, we go to Cody, Wyoming (about an hour east of the Yellowstone) and spend five nights there. We are planning on renting a car ("anyone can make a reservation, but can you hold a reservation?")

From Cody we go to Deadwood, South Dakota and explore the black hills for five days (we're getting a car in Grand Rapids). Then we pass through Cheyenne, Wyoming on the way to Reno and home.

So far, RV: $47K, Estmated Fuel for the trip: $2K, 25 nights with two little dogs and two Bubs... priceless.
