We both woke up struggling for breath, so Holland suggested we pull stakes and move on to a cooler climate at a lower elevation.
I was all over that!
So, we both tended to our house moving chores … then, I put a dab of makeup on, and pulled the slide-outs, in.
And we were moving down the road :-)
Getting ready to slay the Day.
Not bad for an old broad. LOL
Leaving Cody-WY; seeking a cooler climate.

Visiting v.s. Dwelling in the mountains …
Leaving Cody, we passed through tunnels before entering the Shoshone National Forest - which butts up against the east entrance of Yellowstone National Park.
There were a lot of lakes in this portion of Yellowstone National Park - I saw at least 5, within an hour and a half timespan.
Twin Tunnels.
Correction - THREE continuous tunnels ;-)

Interesting rock formations - they look like peaked icing points.

Thank God for unanswered prayers …
Our route … from Fishing Bridge to Madison.
Bleu talking a stroll along this fishy-smelling Lake. Holland said the fishy smell at the lake were Fall Chinook coming up the Snake River that feeds into Yellowstone; (Nez Perce Ford).
On our way out of Yellowstone National Park.
Where the wild things roam freely; probably the same buffalo we saw off-and-on, during our Yellowstone forays.
When we exited the Park, we grabbed some Chinese takeout to eat along the way: I'm glad we did! The leftovers came in handy later on, down the road ;-)
Around 4 PM we started looking for RV Parks, and found one that could accommodate our length; so, we set off in search of it.
It was not an easy undertaking.
A mile an a half from the RV Park … we had a tire blowout: and the spare tire was too big to fit! It was too tall, and add to that - our tires are 6-lug fit, and the spare was an 8-lug fit. WTHeck - what kind of idiot would confuse the two? I suspect that the 'inspector' really didn't inspect; he just wrote it off as inspected: too many things have gone wrong with this 5th wheel to have had an complete inspection. But, I am a daughter of the Most High God … and my Father is always looking out for me, and mine :-)
Elohim never promised us a rose garden - He just promised He would be for us in our hour of need.
We discussed pushing through Idaho & into Utah, tonight.
We will retrace our steps for a couple miles and plat a new route that will be new ground for both of us.
Diamond Ranch does guided horse trails.
Around 4 PM, we secured a parking site for the night. Neither of us slept much last night, and we were feeling the effects of burn-out.
GPS led us on a merry chase to find the RV Park.
Holland was not happy to be so far off the highway …
Blown tire. THIS is WHY Holland doesn't like to be too far down a country road; we're 2-1/2 miles in, at this point :-(
We were in a bad spot, driving uphill when the tire blew ; so Holland limped the 5th wheel forward, and pulled over in a driveway. We both hoped the rim had not been damaged.
I sent an SOS heavenward: Holland's shoulder was on fire, his ribs are still smarting, and his disposition was sour. He could have used some help - so, I prayed Elohim would send someone along to help him do the heavy lifting.
As the prayer was hanging in the air between Earth & Heaven, over the hill came 2 cyclist guys; a direct answer to my prayer. I considered them angels in disguise.
And another angel appeared; all were friendly, helpful, generous with information & physical aide that was helpful: they were truly God-sends ;-)
The Calvary is on it's way … the cyclists were very helpful though much couldn't be done with a mismatched spare; and we were thankful. Hugs were exchanged by everyone, and they went on their way. Holland called Les Schwab, and it was arranged for a fella to come up with a new tire, and replace the blown one.
Three guys from the Redrock RV Park drove by to ask if we were okay, and Holland said, "Yes"; that's God looking out for us. The people here are really nice - thank You, Elohim, for bringing us to this place of caring, compassionate people.
If you are going to have a tire blowout, have it in Idaho ;-) The people are friendly, helpful, and truly caring.
On the other hand, I mentioned to Holland again that I feel oak point devilry is behind everything that has been plaguing us since we started building our life together. Those people are just plain hellish; starting with 'the board', and it isn't too much of a stretch (as far as I am concerned), for them to have slapped a whammy on us - me, in particular.
That's my thought, and I'm sticking with it.
Nothing else (considering all that has been happening - weird, unexplainable stuff) makes any sense. And I don't give a rip what anyone else thinks about what I think - correction: what I know.
I am familiar with the Book of Job … and I've read the back of The Book: I know they lose, and I win :-)
The Oak Point whammy can't seriously hurt us; jeannie paulson was just plain mean-spirited/cruel/malicious, and has a devil riding her - and she was angry I wouldn't let her touch, or hug on me: I didn't want the transference.
Another person from Redrock RV Park to ask if we needed anything.
God send comforters; angels with human faces.
Elohim brought us together for His purpose.
New tire in place; the rest will be switched out tomorrow morning.
7:30 PM: Safe and sound tonight - on the move again, tomorrow.
Redrock RV Park-ID is clean, & the people are very personable.
