Capturing Yellowstone in one blog is like wrting a book on a sheet of toilet paper; well, sort of. We entered through the North Gate in Gardiner MT, to almost immediately spot some mountain sheep stirring up dust on the canyon wall. A few moments later we see some 40-50 elk eating from the lawns at Mammouth Hot Springs. The best part though is meeting up with family. Ben's parents drove in from Idaho, and two younger brothers - Dave and Wes and their families drove up from Utah for a few day stay. Cousins played like nver before. We ate together, viewed herds of buffalo from Hayden Valley, swam in Yellowstone Lake, hiked down to the falls and watched Old Faithful blow. We had a very wonderful time together and had to ask ourselves why we had to move on, but it can't be a National Tour if you get stopped a Yellowstone.

It was great to be in Yellowstone with you --- a highlight of the summer. It's hard to believe you have been traveling all that time since you left us. So glad to have been part of the BN-National Tour
