Left about 10:00 – took the interstate to make up some time. But I want to stop and look at everything! Went through Casper and Kaycee, Wyoming – home of Chris LeDoux (he’s a famous bullrider). Some pictures of what we saw from the road. That speed limit sign says 80, not 60. And the Lusk sign is for you, Donna – only about 30 miles to our east. Tommy – we found a great little camper for you and Stephanie and it runs on horsepower – real horses’ power! We could probably get a good deal on it. Had reservations for tonight in Buffalo at the Indian Campground and RV Park. We arrived earlier, around 2:30 and just unhooked the camper and turned on air and headed to a shop I wanted to go to. When we got there, it was closed for a show, so we went back to camper. When Tony went to open the steps, they were right in the middle of a tree, so he had to hook back up to the camper to move forward. I was in the truck where it was cool, and he was bent under the camper and heard someone screaming “Help!” He got up and headed to the camper next to us and I saw the couple across from us running to it. When I got out of truck, the lady yelled call 911, but my phone was dead. So they called from the office – Tony and the other man were inside with the couple – the man was having a grand mal seizure. The lady was on the phone, crying. The police, first responders, then ambulance arrived – I was the designated waver downer of everyone. They worked with him for a long time and wanted to take him to the hospital, but he refused. Tony checked on him and the other couple has several times this afternoon. Just another example of God’s perfect timing – if the shop had been open, we wouldn’t have been back and if the camper had already been set up, Tony wouldn’t have been outside and heard anything. He heard the man fall, but thought it was kids stomping in there until the woman started screaming, then he immediately went over there. And the other couple across the road were sitting outside under their awning when they heard the lady yelling for help. We actually went out to eat tonight, across the street from the campground. I actually have not been as tired today as usual. We are hoping for an early start tomorrow and to make it 1/2 way to Bigfork, but we’re probably only going to make it 1/3 – we’ll see how many miles we make. I’m ready to be stationary for awhile and finish nesting my house. We were trying to get away from Portal so I finally started stuffing boxes in the washer/dryer closet. That can be put away when we are in Bigfork. Montana tomorrow, just don’t know how far. Please send up prayers for the couple next to us. And pray that those nice, shady cottonwood trees don’t blow down on top of our camper or truck tonight. I am missing my Sunday School class and church and my little fur babies.
