Spain trip - return home (pt. 2)

Elk antler arch in Jackson, WY

At the National Museum of Wildlife Art near Jackson, WY

Grazing by the roadside were several elk

Also grazing roadside was this bison

Who needs a self-stick?

In another case of "What was I thinking?" Charles decided to take the scenic route back to Stevensville. Yesterday he went from Denver to Steamboat Springs, CO (about four hours) and got one of the last hotel rooms in the city!

This morning, with the idea of driving until he was tired in mind, he set out on a mostly northerly course. Eventually he wound up driving through Teton and Yellowstone National Parks and not finding anyplace to stay, had to continue until Butte, Montana!  

On the plus side today was seeing the National Museum of Wildlife Art (just beyond Jackson, WY), lots of great stuff to see! Then driving through Teton & Yellowstone parks, Charles spotted elk and bison and had to take a selfie at Old Faithful.

Not exactly the bang-up way he wanted to conclude this vacation, but there you go! What started out in the morning as an adventure ended up being an endurance event. Hopefully the final drive back to Stevensville tomorrow will not be as dramatic!
