Cross Country Trip Day 6

July 2nd we drove back through yellowstone to see a few more things that we had missed the day before and then headed out to see if we could make it to South Dakota that night.

Cross Country Trip Day 5

Day 5 was our first day in Yellowstone. Our plan was to drive around as much of the park as possible and stop and see whatever struck our fancy, based on name or that guidebook I bought in Portland. Whatever we didn't hit that day we would stop at on our way out of the park on the second day.

now it is hard to ignore the dark skies


But it cleared up for Old Faithful.

We spent most of yesterday in Yellowstone, and we saw quite a bit of wildlife:

If only we could find a moose today!

On the Road

We have been on the road since Friday afternoon and as of last night we made it to the western entrance of Yellowstone. We have already driven 1500 miles!! Today we get to spend our first day in Yellowstone, I can't wait!

So far we have had pretty frequent internet access (suprisingly the cheap hotels are better with having free wireless than the expensive hotels). I have been keeping up with uploading pictures to flickr.


After the trip is over I will come back and walk through the whole trip.
