6/20/09 - Yellowstone Day 1

We were able to catch a couple hours sleep and then off we went south on Grand Loop Drive. We made it to Old Faithful and saw it erupt when the sun was shinning and it was about 70 degrees. Two hours later after lunch and wandering through the Old Faithful Inn, it was raining with thunderstorms and about 50 degrees. So we spent the rest of the day in the car, except for a quick run into the stores at Canyon. We saw black bears, elk, bison, pronghorn, chipmunks, geese and pelicans.

Bison abound - we saw bison on almost every road. A couple were literally on the road.

Old Faithful went off about 2 minutes after we arrived. Ignore the date stamps. They are wrong. The time on our camera was off :).

I want to drive - Goy behind the wheel at the cascades. No we weren't actually moving.
