From Cody to Billings, Montana....and a clean car!

We drove the 140 miles from Cody to Billings and checked into a really nice campground.  They charge $5.00 to let you wash a car and $10 to wash a motorhome, so we took advantage of those.  We just paid the car rate for the motorhome, since we don't have ladders to reach all the way up on the sides, and we can't get on the top, but it looks a lot better.  My car was really nasty from being towed for so many miles, plus lots of driving in bugs.  So, that's how we spent a lot of the afternoon.

Apparently, the vehicle glass companies do very well around here!  When we got to the campground, there was a truck behind us having its windshield replaced, and the guy next door to him had a later appointment to have his done.  At least, ours could be fixed without replacement!

We did go to the Billings visitor center to get some information about the area.  We're going to take the Beartooth Highway tomorrow.

This statue is sitting out in the middle of a field near our campground!
I Googled it, and they call it a "Bob's Big Boy",
but it looks like a Shoney's Big Boy to me!
No one seems to know how it got there!

Last look at the Buffalo Bill Reservoir

Snow-capped mountains in the distance


Washing the vehicles!
