Day 38 – 2013-08-15, Thursday – West Yellowstone, MT

Another cold night:

32

BUT – the heater worked! Not REALLY well, but it was probably 45 or maybe even 50 when we awoke! Beats yesterday! Today, the boys were still out, though they were kind of trying to dig in. Never got that cold, so life is good!

Today, another day of sightseeing, this time the upper loop! We saw a few animals, but not that many … I’m starting to wonder if maybe they only have a few they trot out for the tourists!

I’ll post the photos later, this KoA (West Yellowstone) is crap for WiFi, it’s all I can do to post text, and I want to keep this up to date as much as possible.

Ok, it’s now Monday, and we’re at a KoA in Arco, Idaho that has REAL WiFi, that really works, so here go the photos!

Here is Gibbon Falls close up:

And here’s another shot of them, with a wider view:

And here is a view of the valley below the falls:

Yes, very nice views! Here’s a different angle:

A bit after this, we saw some elk:

This boy is like me – hasn’t missed any meals, check out that gut!

A bit later, we saw some weird landscape:

Norris 1

 

Those were at the Norris Geyser Field.

Ran into some road construction – I’ll spare you the photos, it looks just like any other road construction, but while waiting for Sonny (yeah, I’m referencing a later post … don’t you hate when people do that?), I got a shot of these bison in a wallow, with one of them actually wallowing:

He looked like he was having a grand old time!

That was pretty much it for the Upper Loop.
