Our old "dome" failed. These folks were good enough to put in a nice new dish in its place.

This all took place while we were at the Escapees rally in Gillette, Wyoming.

We are staying in Gillette, Wyoming (again) for the Escapees rally.

This is a park near the Camplex where the event was taking place. This huge ore hauler is part of a static display of equipment used in the mineral extraction industry here.

We were sitting around our motorhome in Gillette, Wyoming during the FMCA rally, enjoying an adult beverage.

This was one of the better days, we had some heavy weather during our visit.

During our visit to the Rapid City area, we have had some heavy weather. The hailstones were the size of mothballs this time.

Then there was enough rain to make a lake in the RV park.

The Branding Iron in Thompson, Iowa serves absolutely the best meat we have eaten in the US. Always worth a visit when we are in Forest City for the Winnebago rally.

Monday is Prime Rib special!
