Next day was another "Chamber of Commerce" day. I saw a pronghorn antelope with her baby--baby pronghorns are almost never seen. She furiously chased away a stupid coyote who came too close to her baby across a huge meadow and then promptly returned to her baby's side.
Also saw a wolf pack chase an interloper out of their territory. I had never seen a wolf, much less a pack, and here I was watching a pack in hot pursuit of another wolf!
They were in a meadow of tall grass and every few seconds one of the pursuing wolves jumped up about 6 feet to check the position of the pursued wolf! Looked funny, like one of those Whack-A-Mole games at the boardwalk. Wish the pics were better but distances and speed of the action were too much.
Enroute to Buffalo, WY we travelled another heart-stoppingly beautiful road--Chief Joseph Scenic Byway.
Frank is "stretching out" at the Turnout Overlook. This is very humbling scenery.
While at the turnout, chipmunks came right up to us begging food. I gave this one a stick of uncooked spaghetti.
Overnighted in a Rest Stop in Emblem, WY which was better than some commercial RV parks we have paid to stay in! It was extremely windy and we "lost" a slideout canopy-it had been on its last leg at the start of our trip. The repair will have to wait until our return to Florida where, I am certain the hurricane winds will completely obliterate it and maybe we can get insurance to replace it.
