Yellowstone National Park

Tues June 29 - Yellowstone

With fully charged electronics, and clean clothes, I left the laundromat and helped pick up camp. The Tetons National Park far exceeded our expectations. We left the park and entered Yellowstone in under an hour. Our campsite, Bridge Bay is approximately 40 miles into the park. After setting up camp, we went to a grill for lunch and started touring Yellowstone. We saw Mud Volcano, Sulphur Caldron, and Artist Point to view the Upper and Lower Falls within Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone.
After a quick stop for supplies at Canyon Village, we headed back to camp. The sky was looking rather ominous just before the first sprinkling of the evening. We convened into the master suite, er tent, and played some cards until the coast was clear. We had Dinty Moore Beef Stew cooked on the open fire (yuk) and a great salad (yum). Giant, really giant marshmallows were for dessert. Another great day in the wilderness, although Billy is having Rachel withdrawals, or maybe simply tech separation anxiety.
