Cody Wyoming

Lily starts to understand the tree hogging thing.
Two weeks into our trip. Life in the RV is getting clearer. How to move in the space and not be in anybody else's way is the thing to learn, We spent a couple of good days in Yellowstone.  The park is great and I saw some things I had never seen before. The mud geyser area was very cool, Old Faithful was a dud but the ride from Fishing Bridge to Cody is as beautiful as any landscape that I have ever seen. It knocked us out.
Yesterday we stopped at the Buffalo Bill Cody Museum. What  a surprise. The Plains Indian section had some of the best Native American art I have ever seen. The display was high quality as an installation and the content was very honest. The abuse by the American government wasn't glossed over.
We pulled into our camp site about 4 PM and went about what felt like life. Lily spread out and did home work, Andrea worked on her Blog and researched our next days journey and I went out to the picnic table and cut onions, carrots and celery for a Scarlet Runner bean soup. It was 8 by the time we cleaned up and strolled the park. Latter in the evening I got a call from the music director of the New Billy Bob Thorton film (working title Jane Mansfield's car) and found out that 2 songs from my band ( The Fifty Foot Hose) are going to be included in the film. I am very excited to get two songs in the film and about 4 minutes of play. The Hose has survived over 40 years and slowly over time its status has continued to rise. Very Cool. It is too bad my partner in the Hose, David Blossom died some years back. David, if you can hear me - A new generation is going to hear what we did, I wish you were here to laugh with me.
