Grand Teton Lake |
After breakfast, Mary and I took a stroll to the lake located just a hundred yards or so from our campground. The beauty of this place seems overwhelming. Once again, 10am was our departure time – this seems to be becoming a habit. We toped off our propane (1.4gal) and got a few groceries at the camp store then headed North again.
Lewis River Yellowstone, NP |
10:30 – we entered Yellowstone, NP and continued climbing. More snow here than Grand Teton but it is old and in the trees. At 11:35 we crossed the Continental Divide for the 5th time as we continued through the forests wondering when we might start seeing much beyond the shoulder of the highway. At Lewis Lake we got a fine view and at West Thumb we stopped to see the boiling paint pots and to have lunch. While we were there another Pleasure-way parked beside up and on the way out we saw another in another part of the lot (3 PWs, two Lexors and a Plateau,in a single lot is the most for us.)
Lewis Falls |
We pulled into the Fishing Bridge RV Park about 3pm and decided to do laundry and showers before parking the rig so by 4:30, we were clean and so were the clothes. The rig was nestled in its space and all was right with the world!
