Brenda and Harlan's Trip Blog

We woke up around 7:30 and met everybody for breakfast about 8am. Good oatmeal. The Willox family ran out of 35mm print film, so Harlan gave them a roll from his supply. Ray (one of the group) talked about Savannah GA and Brenda wants to add that in as a place to visit. Some of the group was also familiar with New Orleans and suggested places for us to visit there, too. The weather was pretty good – not too cold. Heading back up the pass we stopped and took some pictures looking east. One of the mountains there might have been named for the way a cat looks, lying on its back. Along the way we encountered many more bison. We had a sack lunch at Fishing Bridge, and then headed to Artist Point for a little walk and more pictures. We continued west to Norris, then headed north, stopping at Obsidian Cliff before heading to Gardiner for the evening. We dropped off the snowmobiles and a van from the hotel picked us up. We saw elk, bighorn sheep, mule deer, and probably other stuff. The hotel was a Best Western, and that was one of the better hotels we stayed at. For dinner we ate at the hotel restaurant, where Brenda had king crab legs and Harlan had a steak. The appetizer was roasted garlic, which was tasty and also effective for several days’ time. The Willox’s replaced the film that evening.

Brenda says this was the best day of the trip.
