Getting Lost in Montana

We stopped by the Yellowstone River to see the water.

Then on to the Upper and Lower Falls.

 Beautiful Yellowstone Lake

Here we are in Montana close to Bozeman.

Ruth and I got up and went to Yellowstone today. We had so much fun and drama that we will talk about forever. We started out by going up the top half of the circle. When we came down the other side and stopped at the Fishing Bridge, which had not one fish. We looked but nothing. Then we got in the car and started down the road to Old Faithful. Next thing we know we are heading out of the park. We realized we had headed east toward Cody, Wyoming so we had to turn around to go back in. The ranger asked us if we wanted a map. We just laughed and said we already had one. So off we went to Old Faithful. It was getting late and we needed to get home so we could do some more pages. So we had lunch at a cute little diner in Fishing Bridge Village and off we went home. We took Hwy20 out of the park and didn't realize we had to turn again. It was such a beautiful drive. There was beautiful mountains, fly fisherman and rafters. I kept saying we need to go through Ashton and asking Ruth if this looked familiar, but we were talking and laughing so much that we just kept driving. I looked up and saw a billboard that had an advertisement for Bozeman, Montana. Then I knew we were going the wrong way. We got out the GPS and sure enough we had traveled 76 miles up the Galletin River in Montana. We laughed a lot over that one. Needless to say we didn't get home early after all. It was 9:30 before we pulled into my garage. I told Ruth this will give us something to talk about for many years. We did get a page finished before we were so tired we couldn't stay up one minute longer. What a day. 
Grateful Statement: I am grateful for Heavenly Father's hand in the beautiful scenery we saw today. We were blessed to see so much beautiful country.
