Back in Big Sky Country
03 August 2008
We’re in Montana/Wyoming this week at a family
reunion.
We’re camped about 20 miles from Yellowstone with about 80 members of my wife’s extended family. Its safe to say we’re overrun with kids. The boys have already formed small roving gangs of stick-weilding neer-do-wells and the girls have stetup elaborate ruses on how to “get back” at the boys for their alleged predetations...
Yes, its family runion time. I remember my family reunions when I was a kid - the heninger family was big and even produced a few notables including the actor behind Napoleon Dynamite. I kid you not. I remember him as a twin with shirts claiming they were the other one. Funny.
Today we went into Yellowstone and did the typical tourist stuff - drive, drive, drive and see Old Faithful. The kids were suitibly impressed with Old Faithful’s height for about 10 seconds and then went on to dig in the dirt near the boardwalk.
Here are a few images from the past two days.
