Day 6 - Yellowstone

Wednesday, May 10, 2017

Our fridge works!!!!  🙏
We woke up this morning to a working fridge!  A big thanks to Jim's Mobile RV Service for all his help yesterday.  

We left Beaver Lake Campground and headed for Yellowstone with a stop at Walmart on the way to buy Milk, cream and other refridgable items

I don't know how many times I have said "Big Sky" out loud these last few days, but it is hard to get over and hopefully I can remember these mental images for a long time.  

You can see in all directions on the horizon and there are times when you can see multiple weather systems at the same time.

We arrived at the Teddy Roosevelt arch leading into Yellowstone in the late afternoon.  

We stopped at the Visitor Center and were disappointed to hear that there were still four road closures due to the snow and they wouldn't be open until sometime Friday.  

This had a significant affect on our plans after we leave here. 

First stop was the Mammoth Hot Springs, but didn't stay long as Lynn had problems breathing the fumes. 

Didn't take long to see Buffalo (actually Bison). 

Saw a few calves.

There were some stunning views along the way.

On our way to our campground at Fishing Bridge, we saw a lot of remaining snow.  We were further shocked to see how much snow was still around our campsite.  

This site is only reserved for "hard sided" vehicles because of the number of bears in the area......we never sat outside!!

Tomorrow is our big day in the Park and we are really looking forward to it!
Now to settle in and have a coffee (I finally have cream) 😋
