Day 8 - Hello From West Yellowstone

It looks like I'm not going to get the blog to work, so I will be sending emails with no pictures, sorry. I will try and do daily, but I have to come to the main office at this campground to get the internet to work. This place KOA is huge and very crowded!

Just to cap off, we drove for almost 11 hours yesterday with some bumps. Halfway through we stopped at Walmart in Billings, Montana. I made the comment that the only difference between this walmart and the one in Indy is the accent. I really expected an "EH" (pro:A) after people talk they have such a strong northern accent. But the walmart clientele is still the same! I HATE WALMART! Took me forever to shop!

Next we stopped to get gas before hitting the 2 lane road to our campground only to find out the fridge door had fallen open and most of the food I had just bought, fell out and was warm or hot! I spend the next too hours in tears because that is how the day had gone.

The night before we were in Devil's Tower. We had the mother of all storms blow in with lighting striking just yards from our camper and wind and rain to make it worse as well as several power outages. The lightning was like flashbulbs on thousands of cameras. I don't know how the stars on the red carpet do it. It was blinding.

It is beautiful here! We saw our first moose on our drive to our campground and we are about to head into the park. I must go now!

PS, maya is much better! Her fever is finally gone. She is just left with a cough!
