Riddle me this…if we left Colter Bay in the Grand Tetons and drove 113 miles to Gardner MT, why did it take almost 4 hours to get here? Answer…numerous stops and a speed limit of 30-45 mph the whole way, I feel like I just drove around the moon and back. The wondrous views made the trip well worth it, but the dramatic cliff drops and Joanie’s ahhhs and ooohs scaring me at every turn will make my sleep tonight well deserved and oh so delightful…can’t wait.
For the price of free; we were able to see more bison (this time on a cliff), a few mountain goats, several elk laying on the lawn in Mammoth and an elk drinking from the stream along the way. Still need to see that darn bear so I can use my bear spray…starting to think it was a waste of $49.99.
Just arrived at our home for the next 3 days in Gardiner, MT and looking forward to trips into Yellowstone and visiting cities in Montana. Current temperature here is 85…these poor people are about to pass out, this heat streak is terrible. Low tonight of 48, I hope we can hold on.

Yellowstone.

Couldn’t wait for it to blow…sorry, need to blow on our time not yours.

Waiting, waiting, waiting…not waiting.

Home in Gardiner, MT.

Don’t look down.

Not a real eagle.
