Day 207 of a Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways
I had a very quiet day today. I had been attempting to fight off a migraine the last two days which wasn’t working well, so I simply slept in this morning and Max took the day to go to Yellowstone. She had never been there and being so close, she wanted to swing by Old Faithful with or without me. Given I felt bad, had already been there, and plan on going again sometime next week, it seemed like a perfect solution. It sounded like her day was more eventful than mine. She saw bison, a black bear and a bull moose in velvet.
By the time I got moving this afternoon, I saw a pronghorn and a deer. I did; however, enjoy some wonderful views in Grand Teton National Park. We passed by many turnouts and associated views yesterday on our way to secure a campsite, so this afternoon I drove to a handful of them as I found the wildflowers and lakes with a back drop of snow-capped granite peaks quite breathtaking. I stopped at Oxbow Bend Turnout, took the drive to the top of Signal Mountain for a view of the Snake River winding through the valley, and to Jenny Lake Turnout before returning for an evening stroll along the Colter Bay Marina.

OMG, these are by far some of your best pictures. BTW, I just went into Chris’ offices and said “Hey Beth is talking about having a friend from Dallas with her named Max” He verified that it was the same Max that I know. That’s so cool that she could join you. Have fun!
