Day Eleven to Present

I know it's been a while, but we are now out of the park and in places with steady internet access. Back to civilization, I guess you could say.

I can't stress enough the beauty of Yellowstone. Everyone should go at some point. Every view from the park could be on a postcard. It's really too breathtaking for words. We stayed at Old Faithful Inn, which is probably one of my favorite places on the trip. I'll post some pictures of Old Faithful Geyser and the hotel. We then traveled up to Roosevelt Lodge and stayed in some old cabins from the 1920s. The only problem was that it was about 30 degrees in the park, and we had to use a woodburning stove for heat. Needless to say, it was an experience for everyone. It was really great to have Murray and Dianne with us. At least we had other people to talk to for once!

After a two-night stay in Billings, Montana, we are now in Cody, Wyoming for the last leg of our trip. Dad and I went to the Cody rodeo last night. Cody has a rodeo every night of the summer. I'm always up for a good rodeo, and it was fun. We've stopped at museums, taken pictures of beautiful scenery, seen wildlife, taken a float trip down the Snake River, gone hiking, and had a blast doing it all. We're very fortunate to have this opportunity, and to experience the beauty of God's creation. We will be heading to Buffalo, WY next, and then to Mt. Rushmore. After Mt. Rushmore, or "The Presidents' Heads," we'll be heading home.

I'm really enjoying this trip, and part of me will be sad to go back to my normal life. Hope you enjoy the pictures!
