While we were in Montana, we took a couple day trips.
We were so close to Yellowstone, we decided it was worth the drive to take the kids to see Old Faithful and the other sites. It had been 8 years since we had been there.
The thermal pools were beautiful.
The bubbling paint pots (or bubbling mud pots as I used to call them) made the little kids laugh.
The geysers were definitely everyone's favorite attraction.
Spasm Geyser
Fountain Geyser
Of course, Old Faithful is always a big hit.
The rest of our group walked the loop around Old Faithful to see the other geysers and thermal pools while Don and I waited in the shade with Baby M.
On the way out of the park, we stopped to see the lower falls on the Yellowstone River.
The next day, we headed into Bozeman to visit the Museum of the Rockies at MSU. There was a fantastic dinosaur display and we saw hundreds of frogs.
There was also a really cool room for the kids with interactive displays about Yellowstone and other activities.
We wrapped up the day at Hyalite Reservoir. Some of the group went hiking to see the falls.
Great company, fantastic activities, wonderful location! Thanks Sandy and Kurt for putting together a great reunion!
