Yellowstone


Sulphur Caldron
Each day while Janet, Fred's sister, was here we drove from our RV park in Cody, WY to Yellowstone, about an hour. It rained and sleeted with cold wind each day except one. Yesterday was beautiful. We have seen gorgeous falls, bubbling mud, Old Faithful and other geyers, Sulphur Springs, historic Yellowstone hotel, and the historic Yellowstone Hotel. You can't begin to explain the scenery. Seeing Old Faithful erupt with hundreds from all over the world waiting quietly is almost a holy moment!

Sunset in Park
One cold rainy day we drove into Cody and visited the Wild Bill Cody Museum in Cody, WY. Really well done. It also had info on Yellowstone and Indians and art and photography. We spent hours there. Cody not only had his Wild west Show but promoted women's rights, conservation, started Cody, WY and a newspaper. Very interesting afternoon.

Fred and Janet at Cody Airport
Janet has been such fun. She took off work to spend the week with us. She and Fred have enjoyed talking and remembering their parents and their trips as children. I can't believe tomorrow is her last day. We plan to make one last visit to the park.
