In September David and his family came up and went to Yellowstone with us. It was such a great weekend. Perfect weather, lots of animals were out and everyone was happy; for the most part.
Stopping at Big Springs to feed the fish.

Amree was very excited that Aunt Becki showed her how to be a duck by using pringles.

On our ride up to Mammoth we were stuck on the road for a very long time. We couldn't see around all the corners to see what the hold-up was. About 1 1/2 hours later and only a couple of miles we saw the problem. A heard of bison on the road. It was A BUNCH. They were everywhere. On the road and both sides. Although it is exciting to see them up close by the time we got to them we just wanted to get past.

We stayed the night in Mammoth, which happens to be my favorite place in Yellowstone. After our VERY long wait with the bison it was pretty late when we finally arrived. We checked into our cabins and went to Gardiner just outside of the park for dinner. I really wanted to try out a swimming place in the river where the hot water mixes with the cold but we'll have to another time.
