Another Trip to Yellowstone & Time with Friends

We have been enjoying our time here in Island Park, ID very much. We are not in town so we have been spending a lot of time just hanging out. We have spent a lot of time with our friends enjoying Dinners, Happy Hours, and some Card playing thrown in for fun.

Tuesday, Aug 2nd, Chuck & Kathy invited us to take another day trip to Yellowstone so we piled in to their truck and off we went. We were going to tour the south loop of the park. It wasn’t long before we saw some Elk off in the distance…

We turned off at Fisherman’s Bridge and stopped for lunch at the Lodge. The food was just so-so,but very expensive. After this, we were off to see some of the Geyser’s….

Thursday, Mac Chauffeured Kathy, Arlene & I into West Yellowstone for a little grocery shopping.

Today, Chuck & Kathy and Arlene went with Mac & I to the Smoking Waters Mountain Man Rendezvous. There were a lot of things to see, but not really anything that we were interested in purchasing.

We went in to West Yellowstone to do a little more window shopping. We purchased some Huckleberry Jam and some Sweet & Hot Relish…lol. Arlene made a couple of purchases and so did Chuck & Kathy. Afterwards we headed home to each of our RV’s for some dinner.

Stay tuned for more adventures here around Island Park, ID…
