On the road to Colorado

Left for Colorado on the 15th via Livingstone, Colorado. The ride on Rte 89 was not too scenic until we reached the mountains. We saw the Little & Big Belt mountains and the scenery improved. Our campground was Yellowstone's Edge RV Park. It rates about a 3+. Next day we headed for Landers, Wyoming via Yellowstone Park and past the Grand Teton Mountains. The campground manager at the Livingston, Montana campground we stayed at advised us that if going through Yellowstone, one of the roads was closed due to construction. She said to avoid one other road due to mountains and lots of "S" turns but to get the map when we went into the park to see where the problem roads were. Well, as things go, our GPS took us into the park on the wrong road so we had to break into the line at the gate. Our lovely park ranger chastised us and didn't give us a map. At that point, we didn't dare ask for one but figured we would be able to avoid the closed and bad roads without a map. (So there!) After driving many more miles than I thought we would before having to make a choice of roads, we came to the closed road. The choices then were to turn West or East and Norm turned East which is the road I thought the campground person said to avoid. Soooooo, we decided to do a U-turn with the 36' rig, while towing the car behind, and somehow ran out of road! Traffic piled up in both directions and it took quite a while to maneuver the rig to the right angle to be able to unhook the car so the rig could back up and get the heck out of dodge! Fortunately, another park ranger got to meet us and she helped direct traffic past us without showing much contempt. We managed to go separately to the West road only to find that it was only a parking spot to look at geysers. So, we managed to drive through the parking lot, receiving several looks from people we blocked before. After re-hooking the car, we went back to the wrong road (which was now the right road) and headed out of Yellowstone. The only stop we made was for a herd of buffalo right in front our our rig! Where was Ms. Park ranger then?????
After traveling through miles of road construction, some of which was a pass at almost 10,000' elevation we went through some nice areas with different landscape. We especially enjoyed the area in Wyoming at "wind river" and would like to re-visit sometime and spend a few days there. Our next stop in Wyoming was the Sleeping Bear RV Park. (rates about 1 out of 5) After that, AB Campground in Cheyenne, WY. Turns out that we have stayed there before and forgot about it. We did have a BBQ dinner there. Good thing, no dishes to do. Bad thing, not so great for the $$.
