Old Faithful
Yellowstone is beautiful. We have seen five buffalo so far – I am SO geeked! We got to Old Faithful with perfect timing. It erupted about two minutes after we arrived and the next eruption was predicted to be 1.5 hours later. We are now eating fish and chips at the Old Faithful lodge cafeteria … Continue reading
Yellowstone
At Yellowstone. Taking lots of pics. Will upload later. Very pretty. 🙂
A few more pics as we approach Yellowstone
Beautiful scenery. 🙂 EDIT @ 2:15 mountain time: Uh oh. Looks like I don’t even have roaming data anymore. Guess I’ll have to wait to post this.
Approaching Yellowstone
Just left Cody, WY and headed to Old Faithful at Yellowstone National Park.
Night two – Gillette Wyoming
Today was eventful. We woke up in Minnesota and enjoyed the tasty homemade waffles at the Comfort Inn continental breakfast. Then we fueled up and hit the road. Before we knew it we were in South Dakota. Marie already posted about the world’s only corn palace and the famous Wall Drug, but she didn’t post … Continue reading
Wall Drug – Wall, SD
There’s this place in South Dakota called Wall Drug and there are signs advertising it from hundreds of miles away. Nick and I failed to stop there when we first drove from Seattle to Detroit six years ago, but we finally gave in and went last summer. It’s pretty touristy, but they have free cold … Continue reading
World’s only corn palace – Mitchell, SD

All sorts of corn-related souvenirs there, including corn husk jelly. We decided to pass on the jelly lol. We … Continue reading
Good morning, Albert Lea!
Our tummies are full of waffles, English muffins, omelettes, and yogurt. Now we’re about to hit the road for day two. 🙂
Night One – Albert Lea Minnesota
Here’s a picture from the going away party at dads the other day. Haven’t had a chance to upload this until now. We made it all the way to Minnesota today. Much better than we thought we’d do since we had to stop at O’hare, but our timing was so perfect we were barely there … Continue reading
Wisconsin Part II
Still no cows. It’s a wonder where the cheese comes from. I just killed a spider that was dangling in front of me and I was even able to maintain my composure! If Nick knew, he’d be so proud of me. 😛 Looks like we’ll definitely make it to Minnesota tonight. We’re only 70 miles … Continue reading
