Mary headed to Illinois on the 19th to pick up
her Mom. They drove to Cedar Rapids Iowa
on the 21st and headed to the airport early the 22nd to
catch their plane to Chicago and then to Jackson WY. Unfortunately the flight was badly delayed so
they missed their connecting flight so had to totally reroute their
itinerary. Instead of getting to Jackson
around 2:30 in the afternoon they got in about 8:30.
They were able to get a glimpse of the Tetons as they left the airport. Pretty mountain range. That made for a very late
arrival at the Lake Yellowstone Hotel (about 11:30 pm). It would have been ok except that much of the
drive was in the dark so they couldn’t even do any sightseeing.
In the meantime, Paul left with the van on Saturday, the
20th, drove to LA to pick up Josh and then headed on to Vegas. On the 21st Paul, Josh, Jessica,
Chloe and Liam hit the road. They spent
the night in Salt Lake City and headed out to Yellowstone the following morning. They arrived in Yellowstone through the West
Gate and did a bit of sightseeing in the Madison area. 
One of the highlights was an elk on the road,
causing a bit of a traffic jam.
They
also saw bison...
and several thermal features at the Artists Paint Posts, including mud pots, steam vents and thermal pools.
They arrived at the Lake
Yellowstone Hotel in the late afternoon on the 22nd.
