Friday--Temperature this morning at Gardiner, MT. was 25 degrees. By the time we had breakfast and got into Yellowstone the temp had risen to 28 degrees. At the entrance to the park we saw several elk. We drove the upper part of the park which we had not done before or if we had we didn't remember it. We saw a couple of herd of buffalo in the valley's and that was all the wild life we saw in that part. We went down to Old Faithful and went past several of the mud holes that were steaming and got out a couple of times..As we reached Old Faithful, we saw that it was not to erupt for a while so we had lunch in the cafeteria with all the rest of the "ching chang chong" people, who were very rude regardless of where we saw them..After lunch, we started out to see the geyser and I thought I had a few minutes so I went to the bathroom, when I got outside it was over. Bobby made some pictures and didn't really think it had erupted but guess it had, we sat there for a while and everybody left, so we left without me seeing it..After this we stopped a couple of times and made pictures of the waterfalls and I made the walk tot he Grand Canyon of Yellowstone and made some pictures..As we were leave the park we drove through a mountainous area and saw snow on the mountains and the side of the road..We are now in Cody, WY for the night..We have been to WM and then when we got back tot he room I went to Walgreens hunting T-shirts or sweat shirts for the kids but have yet to find any..I am getting rather perturbed..So much for this busy day, tomorrow is a day of riding eastward..
