Narration here.
The sun highlighted the colors of Devil's Tower and the surrounding red cliffs made a perfect postcard shot for MJB. She sent this to her mom using the Touchnote app on her iPhone that her nephew JC told her about.

After the the shot the RV was made ready. Everyone (even the on-looking neighbors) gave a cheer when the driver side slide was successfully retracted with one smooth motion.
The route would return to I90 for a scenic drive thru rolling hills that were home to antelope, sheep and cows. The sky was quite clear so there was a view of the Tetons in the far distance. There was even some snow caps spotted.
Deer Park RV campground in Buffalo, WY was very nice. It included large pull thru sites, a pool and even an after-dinner ice cream social (bring your own bowl). MJB researched some geocaches and found a relatively new one within walking distance.
While Kevin edited his drone video, MJB and Theresa went in search of the hidden treasure.
MJB indicated that no one had yet found this new geocache, so if found, this would be a 'First To Find' in the geocache lingo. This is a rare occurrence and just happened to be another one of MJB's bucket list items. The two seekers set off in the direction of the cache as tracked by the Geocaching app on MJB's phone. At one end of the RV park, a Private Property sign stopped the two from continuing in their current direction. The only way to get to the cache was to go out of the park and around the barbed-wire fence that surrounded the Private Property. On the way out of the park, two fawns were grazing next to the park entrance. Guess Deer Park RV campground was appropriately named!
At the RV entrance, there was a sign marking a trail with an arrow. The trail seemed to head in the right direction so that was the way to go next. That trail looped back away from the target cache so the two backtracked to the sidewalk and once again set course guided by the iphone app. The app indicated the hunters were practically right on top of the cache. The area was searched high and low then... ah-ha...there it is! It was a small pill bottle, camouflaged and labeled as a geocache!. MJB was delighted to be the first to sign the log, capture the proof in a selfie with Theresa, and log a “found it” message as well as post a picture of the find in the Geocaching app. No Muggles were seen in the area (a Geocaching term to indicate non-Geocachers in the area that might wonder what the hunters are doing).

Once back at the RV, dinner was prepared and MJB and Kevin both proofread and added more details to previous blog posts that Theresa had written earlier that day. Pictures and Kiehl's narration audio files for the posts were all uploaded using the campground's semi-reliable wifi.
As the crew was finishing dinner, Kiehl called to discuss wedding plans and engage in general banter with his folks and aunt. This was a welcome alternative to the park's ice cream social that no one really needed anyway.
The next day's drive would again be on I90 into another new state, Montana!
