We decided to try and see some bears and wolves today. We got up at 5am and drove to the Lamar Valley. It is called the Serengeti of North America.
There are literally hundreds of Bison, maybe thousands.
We didn’t see any wolves or bears this time but it was beautiful.
After looking at the wildlife we thought we might check out Cody, Wy. We took the Chief Joseph Scenic Byway. Teddy Roosevelt called it the fifty most beautiful miles in America.
I agree.
Cody was also great. We spent a couple of hours at the Museum of the West where we learned about Buffalo Bill Cody, Native American culture, and western art. We each picked a favorite piece.
This one is Tommy’s favorite.
Ellie’s.
Ben’s.
Libby’s.
Mine.
Then we headed back toward Yellowstone. Along the way stopped at a bridge with beautiful views.
Back into Yellowstone past Beartooth Mountain.
Dinner on the banks of the Soda Butte Creek.
And a quick stop at Roosevelt Lodge where Libby stayed with her family when she was a little girl.
