Thu 01 - Yellowstone Day Three
There is a slow leak in air mattress. Urghh! Another round of thunderstorms passed through the campground just after we settled in the tents for night. Despite the inconveniences, we woke up refreshed and ready for another beautiful morning. We cooked bacon and pancakes before going out for a boat ride. There is a marina at Bridge Bay, so It was easy to rent Whaler-type craft and zip around Yellowstone Lake. Awesome! Afterwards, it was a perfect day to be lazy and just enjoy camping. Playing with the dog, or just doing nothing is elevated to a new level. Lake Lodge Restaurant was on the agenda for our last night in Yellowstone. We all had a terrific dinner. In fact, Jack ate more than I have seen him eat in a while, and a fairly exotic selection: wild Alaskan salmon, corn and scallion risotto, and asparagus. Billy had elk, bison and antelope sliders. Bill had bison tenderloin and I had plain 'ol halibut. It was all excellent. Billy drove us back to camp. The guys made their evening fire and Bill and I retired to our books. Tomorrow starts a new adventure. We'll go through Montana, stay in a hotel and plan the next leg of the trip. We heart Wyoming!
