Yellowstone

We spent the day in Yellowstone, and let me tell you, its a real trick getting 10 familes somewhere at the same time and with the same intention.

We all managed to get to Mammoth Hot Springs by lunch time, which isn’t bad considering how far we had to drive. I think the kids will revolt if we make them drive much more. This park was apparently created for the car-tourist in mind and its just massive. I keep looking out the window longingly, wanting to ride my bike.

Here are a few picts:

Tomorrow I’m taking a side trip to Mackay, Idaho to visit my grandpa’s old ranch. They sold it off in the late 80’s and I still miss the place. I would love to buy that little plot of land. Anyhow, its about a 2 hour drive, across the desert, past the nuclear test facility and up the Lost River Valley. Should be fun.
