Buffalo, WY to Billings, MT

June 5, 2019

We arrived in Billings in the afternoon, about 3 pm. Had to make a pit stop at the tire store to have two tires on the rig replaced, one had a chunk out of the tread. Then we checked into Billings RV Village. Our caravan Tail Gunners, Jim and Theda were already here, and our spot is right next to them.

We spent the first couple of days with our friends from the 2015 Alaska Caravan, Gary and Jean Schneider. Jean fixed dinner one night and we played 6 hand, 2 teams Hand and Foot. Ladies won that game!! Second night we went out to dinner to a German place that was pretty good. Played cards after dinner, and Ladies won that one as well!!

The next night we met Phil's brother in law, Eric and his wife, Connie, at a Mexican place for dinner. That was really good as well. Then, Eric and Connie made dinner for the four of us the next night at their house. A nice relaxing evening outside in their back yard, and no bugs!!

We had a great time in Billings, but all good things must end, the next day, June 10th, we were due in Great Falls, MT to get things ready for the 2019 Alaska Caravan.


Our site at the Billings RV Village, Jim and Theda's Motor Home is next to us

This is the office, this park is laid out exactly like the park we used to stay at when we visited Phil's sister Norine, when she still lived in Chatsworth, CA.

The park has a collection of things from back in the day...



See the bears peaking out of the top of the wood?

More of times gone by
