We left the beauty of Jackson Lake lodge in the Tetons and headed into Yellowstone...about an hour and 1/2 drive with the construction on the roads. Stopped for Lunch at _____________..the meal was pretty good...our waiter was from my home town of Gastonia and actually graduated from my High School (Ashbrook High...you know the home of James Worthy and David Belk...lol---ROLL GREENWAVE!!!) We knew of the same folks and he was good firends with one of my highschool coaches son....anyway....
We were in Yellowstone Wednesday July 29th thru Saturday Morning, August 1st. We stayed at the Yellowstone Lake Lodge, this was built in 1858/1859 (?). (See Pic) Upon arrival we checked in and headed down for our first activity...Lamar Valley Drive....this drive is an attempt to go and see animals where the park knows they are most likely to be....left at 4:30pm and returned at 9:45ish....it was on a bus and fortunatley dad did not have to drive.....nothing is close in Yellowstone..this "park" as they call it could be its on small state.
We saw Bison, Elk, Prong Horn and a Black Bear.....
It was a fun day.
