OK, so we left Moab, and went to Salt Lake along with several other Moab attendees, and Linda & Dean who were intending to meander on to Alaska. We had a few mini rallies, and thanks to Kodiac, we even made one official. Well, on our third supper together, Donna finally remembered to bring along the camera, and you will see we caught it in a picture.
We left SLC for Yellowstone, and met Pancake Bill and Jolene, no food but enjoyable few minutes with framily who Donna and I had never met, even though we winter in the Tampa Bay area, where they spent many years.
As with all of the previously visited National Parks, Yellowstone was delightful, we not only got to see the geysers and hot springs, we also saw and took pics lots of bison, grizzly bears, Elk and moose (yes Marsha, we have pictures of moose The Grand Tetons). We even got caught up in a stampede of bison.
Then as we arose to pack up, there was all this white stuff on the coach and car, picture attached. I know we were in the mountains, but the couple of days before it was in the 80's, and this is supposed to be in the warmer US. Seemed like the little bird and his friends were having a ball in the fir tree next to the coach, but we hadn't seen that breed and will have to look up what type he was.
Donna and I are really of the opinion that much like the Sasquatch (Bigfoot), there rumours of bighorns are much exaggerated. We kept looking all the way up, but all we saw were signs telling us not to disturb them, well that would have been hard as they were never there to be found.
So far since crossing the border, we done the dinosaur museum in Drumheller, which was another mind blowing experience, there are several new exhibits from the Badlands that are all around southern Alberta. We're now hunkered down in Calgary, and we had our first rainy day since leaving Florida. However, it appears there will be a few more to come before the sun comes out. We head for Banff and Jasper National Parks next week.
