Thursday July 2nd - evening

Got started into the Rockies out of the town of Shoshone and it started dumping rain. Drove the next couple of hours in it and got into Cody and drove into the first place that looked like it had camping. I ran in and paid my 21 dollars, hurried and got my tent set up so I could get out of the rain and now it has stopped and the sun has come out. Big black clouds all around though. People everywhere, Big Cody Rodeo going on. I keep forgetting that it is almost the 4th and Yellowstone is a popular vacation place. Rode 386 miles today, mostly dry. Saw about 100 antelope by a hunters count. (editorial comment - I think that means Dee counts both ends behind they tree, so closer to 50).
