Thursday-Casper:
I got up early and help Keri feed the little guys at the motel breakfast. At 10:00 I met my coffee drinking "homies" for hot chocolate at Johnny J's (This is where Prez Obama ate lunch when he was campaigning in Casper in 2008). I enjoyed it and returned to the motel to get ready to head to the airport to pick up David and Kelsey and then the final leg to Thermopolis for the memorial service.
There are no towns between Casper and Shoshoni (96 miles). When we finally reach Shoshoni we all headed for the rest rooms at one of the convenience stores. While waiting I saw a book titled "My dog was a Redneck but we got him fixed." Didn't buy it.
Arrived in Thermopolis just after a hail storm had gone through and it looked more like January than June on the ground.
Tuesday was our 42nd anniversary but we waited until last night to celebrate with Keri and the boys, David and Kelsey, my brother Bill and my cousin Ann Johnson, who had driven down from Monana for the memorial services.
It rained like crazy and I was nervous about what the weather would be like at the graveside service on Friday.
