We left the “big yellow turd” behind and headed toward Greybull through Yellowstone. Stopped at the Artist’s Paintpot. It was not nearly as cool as some of the other places we went but there was a beautiful view of snow capped mountains. From there we were headed to the Fishing Village but got slowed dramatically by a herd of bison that travelled down the road for miles blocking traffic both ways! We started out about 12 cars back but we were blocked by bison when other cars went by so we were right behind them for about 1/2 hour. Everyone was totally entertained.
Glad we weren’t in a hurry, though! We stopped at a visitor center for kids to do a scavenger hunt since we couldn’t make any ranger talks.
Learned lots about volcanoes and fault lines š. Lunch at the Lake Yellowstone was great, the view was lovely AND Jason got his most impressive souvenir..
The drive to Greybull was serpentine to say the least. As we were getting out of the park we were lamenting the lack of wildlife when we saw people on the side of the road. We pulled off to see and there were moose! A mom and baby. š luckily they didn’t bolt when we released the air brake.
We had a fun stay at the Greybull KOA. We arrived yesterday around 5 and once we were settled my mom and I rode bikes to the grocery store to get dinner. We were slightly limited in our options, but we had a propane grill so we got the best steaks we could get our hands on. We ended up with sirloin steaks wrapped in bacon (a whopping $10.99/lb)! We also got stuff for loaded baked potatoes. Interesting that a pound of local bacon was more than 2 steaks but we went with it. When we got back Zoe & Lojo were in the hot tub (supposed to be in our site but we couldn’t fit so we moved but still has access) and Zachary was playing horseshoes with my dad. We had a lovely dinner on the patio (minus the difficulties consuming the steaks š). Zoe: “Uh… Mom… I can’t actually chew my steak up” hahaha We all had similar experiences. The bacon, however, was AWESOME!
