I have been visiting Yellowstone National Park and my friend, Yellowstone for the past few days. She's a guide in this incredible park and has given me the best tour possible!!! What a treat to see not only Old Faithful but all the other thermal features as well as bison, elk, and wolves (through scopes). Way cool! And then we did a 3 day backpacking trip with some friends up Mt. Holmes, over 10,000 ft! Delightful time...and my partner and me won at cards... both nights! A game called 500. Similar to Euchre, so I had a bit shorter learning curve. But I did manage to get sunburned. You'd think that after spending all summer on Blaze I'd have been good, but it must have been the altitude. And my sunscreen was on the bike...ouch!
And I've been meeting a slew of folks that work in the park...her friends. What a great place this is! I've loved being able to spend time with Yellowstone and catch up.
Tomorrow we're heading to Cody where we'll see the Buffalo Bill Museum and go to Sierra Trading Post (floors of stuff on sale!). We'll also have dinner and spend the night. Then Wednesday I'll get back on Blaze and do the final leg of my amazing summer journey. Don't think I'm ready for this trip to end, but it's time....I guess. All good things must end, and so must this trip. But it's not my last...oh NO! Blaze is definitely my RV:) We're gonna see some fabulous places together, yessireee!!!
