Perry, Oklahoma

On Tuesday morning, October 8 we arrived to a Walmart in Enid, OK, at about midnight slept until about 5:00am, left there and arrived to Perry Lake Campground City Park i n Perry, Oklahoma (spot #10) at about 10:00am. We actually paid to stay for three nights, but decided to leave after only one night because of the possibility of golf ball sized hail in the weather forecast for Thursday. The wind was already beginning to pick up as you can see and hear by clicking this VIDEO LINK .

Leaving Yellowstone National Park

Leaving YNP was an adventure. There was snow and some ice on the ground, but there was no indication that any of the roads through the park were closed or particularly hazardous. I checked the YNP and the Wyoming DOT websites, and no road closings noted. In hindsight, I should have called the park hotline as well. Turns out that the south exit was indeed closed. After a 50 miles or so trip from north to south, we had to turn the rig around (quite the challenge) and back track some miles to find the west exit into Utah. Just thankful we made it safely out of the snow and ice. The truck really came through for us. Here is a VIDEO LINK of our drive through Yellowstone up to the point where we had to turn around.
