Day 60 - Drive to Cody

We spent the night on the east side of Yellowstone and camped next to a beautiful river- beautiful and cold, I might add! We made it to Cody and looked up a mechanic- his name was Joe. He said it would take at least 2 weeks for him to get to fixing the clutch and that we were pretty much out of luck. But, we begged and pleaded and told him we live in the truck and have to get back, so he gave in and started working on it that night. He pulled the transmission out and our poor truck was in pieces in the shop.
So, the question that follows is this- where did we spend the night?

TAADDAAA!!! yep, that is right, we camped in the auto shop yard!
That night, we took a walk into town to see what we could see and as we were coming back, we saw evidence of a wildfire that was burning in the mountains near Yellowstone. . .
