Ok.......fb is updated....photos and such....I've been sitting in sbucks for well over an hour....time to update the blog for the last couple days.
So where did i leave off.....i was sitting in the Silver dollar in Jackson.....ppl kept stealing all my chairs...finally when this gal stole my last one she said...if you wanna sit with us you can...we took all your chairs anyway! So i said sure...nice ppl....there was Mike, Mcayla, Bonnie, Kelsey, and.....Justin....lol...the only way i could remember their names was to associate them with something else! so Justin was Justin Morneau...Baseball player....Bonnie....was from a 'Bonnie situation' from Pulp Fiction, Mcayla was from Transformers...and it seemed to work! Had a great night @ the silver Dollar, danced a bit, chatted and then moved on to the Tavern....but Justin and i went to move my van to the over night parking lot down the street abit....so got back to the tavern shot the shit abit....place was kinda dead....Justin lost his phone...back to the van..lol....just gunned.....back to the tavern....called her a night soon after. Stumbled back to the van...woke up @ 8 still smashed....slept for another hour and was ok....hungover but ok! Found a place to have some breaky and made my way into the parks.
If you get the chance to go through Teton and Yellowstone....do it. Bucket list it. I hammered thru it due to time restraints (gatta get to Green Bay) You could easily spend....weeks in there...so much to see...wild life, diverse terrain, geological stuff....just a super cool place. In the south there was an inversion...so low cloud but it opened up to the north so that was good, saw some elk, buffalo, birds....all sorts of stuff. Drove around to see some key spots, Old Faithful, the falls, and some hidden hot springs. Got to see all that i wanted to as time allowed.....I will make a trip back here in the future.....and do it properly. Some un real scenery!
Started the drive toward the east entrance.....and came around a corner....right into a heard of Buffalo! on go the brakes....everything in the van shifts rapidly lol.....So now I'm idling along with this roaming heard of Buffalo....they don't care that I'm there....not at all!....so i took some blurry pics and some video of it....very cool....they finally found where they wanted to cross and they did......there was prob 50 or so on the road and another 50 off the road. After that excitement....continued east to Cody WY, filled up and east bound and down....thru a 9100 ft pass......kinda wishing i did it in the day and not at night....even at night i could tell there was some cool shit to see...so i stopped at the summit and shut the van down and just looked at the stars for a while........sure felt small and insignificant at that point. Continued down alittle further and parked for the night.
Got up to the sun shining, the valley floor in the distance and some amazing rock formations....its cool...the state has put up signs pointing @ the rocks...telling you the approx age and geological period they are from...some dated back 300 million years....cool stuff....WY has some very cool stuff in it!
So here i sit in Gillette WY....next stop Rushmore and then a big pile of driving over the next 2 days....bout 2000km to Green Bay and a football game that i kinda wanna see!
