Thought for the Day – Click Here Yellowstone was the first of the USA’s National Parks. A bold experiment by foresightful men. Actually, at the time it was creation of a playground for the exceedingly wealthy. These were the only…
Cowboys and Bus Mechanics
Click here for the Thought Of The Day… Leaving Casper, we headed towards the Tetons and our appointment with George, the Bluebird’s Previous owner. We wanted to tell him how much we were enjoying the bus…that it was proving reliable…
Our Eclipse-Destiny
