Just a quick update on our travels. We have been in Montana since Sunday evening. From here we go into Yellowstone Park. The last two days have been filled with sightseeing mostly from the van. I knew my kids were lazy, but they all prefer their nature from a window view. Old faithful was cool. Again we are struck by how many foreign visitors are at the national parks. Yellowstone is very beautiful, but very crowded. After seeing bison for the tenth time, we were less impressed and kinda hoped they would charge some of the idiots who get too close. Tuesday we went swimming at Boiling river. It is a place in the river where a hot spring enters and it was like a hot tub. We stayed there for a few hours. We ended the day by finding another swimming hole to ride the currents down river. Anthony was able to find a spot to do his flips. We enjoyed the second day much better.
The biggest issue we have had here in Yellowstone, is the many fires and smoke from the fires. The sulfer has also been a problem for some. Have to go we have six minutes to leave the campground. We will be on the road for the next day or two. On the way to Mt Rushmore.
Hi Cora! What a great adventure and blog! I am so jealous. How long will you guys be on the road? Happy for you all -- see you later! Tina Carlon
