This is a small little campground, but it has a wonderful hot springs pool.  The hot springs flows over 1 million gallons of water in 24 hours.  I think the temperature is 130 degrees and it has a very heavy mineral content.  We spent about a half hour in the medium temperature pool (they won&#8217;t let you in the hot temperature pool).  It felt really good, but I don&#8217;t think we feel all that much younger {grin}.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">We are on our way to an Eagle Bus Rally in Cody, WY.  We are only about 30 miles from Cody, and could have easily made it there today, but we thought it would be fun to spend some time in a hot springs.  Little did we know that we would have our own pools in the campground.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">We left Denver on Friday and stopped in Chugwater, WY.  We stopped in Chugwater last year and documented our \u201crelationship\u201d with the town in this <a href=\"http:\/\/rvsafetyman.blogspot.com\/2010\/07\/hello-from-chugwater-wy.html\">blog<\/a>.  As we noted in that blog, we have fond memories of taking an Eagle bus to a membership ranch we belonged to and stopping in Chugwater to get great meat for the meals at the Ranch.  It is sad to see the town main street almost deserted.  The only place that is open is a great store\/restaurant that is said to have the oldest continuously operating soda fountain in Wyoming.  <\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">The Eagle Rally does not start until Wednesday, but we hope to do quite a bit of sightseeing prior to the rally.   <\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">That is all for now.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello from Thermopolis, WY.
