Since we had to wait to find out whether or not our new windshield was going to make it today, we decided to drive a road out of Bozeman to West Yellowstone. What a beautiful canyon! Our visit to West Yellowstone was a surprise. The western gateway city was a great little town. It was such a quaint town with a western flair. As we entered the park our first wild animal was gorgeous swan. This was a little disappointing but was soon over powered by a sighting of a bull elk, 3 elk cows, a gigantic buffalo, and then at the northern park entrance a herd of elk in the middle of the road. Then we drove up the valley to Livingston. If you had any interest in a log home you would have had an easy viewing of any style or size. This valley was along the Yellowstone River. Any setting was beautiful.
We were a little disappointed in the northwest section of Yellowstone Park. When we finished going through it, we ask each other to describe it in a word. Jan's word was vast. Mine was diversified. Neither of these begin to compare to our words for Glacier. It appears that Yellowstone may be more of an animal refuge than a beautiful. As we explore over the next week I may have to change my opinion.
