More of Day 4, 6/24

Old Faithful

The Lower Falls of the Yellowstone from Artist Point


The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone from Mt. Washburn

On day 4 we broke camp in the Tetons and drove to Yellowstone. Since this was Mom's last day with us, we decided to hit some of the highlights: Old Faithful, the Hayden Valley, the Lower Falls and Mammoth Hot Springs. The eruption at Old Faithful was not as powerful as it was when Dea and I saw it in September. We saw lots of buffalo, but no other animals.

We finished the day by going out of the north entrance of the park and driving to Bozeman, MT. It felt really nice to stay in a hotel with hot showers and a soft mattress.

Total miles driven=301
Time in car=7hr 40min

Jerbo,

Finally got a chance to browse the pictures from your trip. I especially like the "herd of tourist" and the wonderful comment on the sights in Kansas. I can completely relate to both. Makes you wonder why Dorothy (Wizard of Oz - not my wife) wanted so badly to go back to Kansas?
