Yesterday I mentioned that we made it to a small inn in Wapiti so we could get some much needed rest. Well, I slept for 11 hours straight and loved every minute of it!

When we got up this morning, we headed west toward Yellowstone. Along the way we saw a moose, but no other large animals. About 15 miles east of Yellowstone we came to a really nice ranch called the Black Water Guest Ranch. Interested in what this ranch was like, we stopped and talked to a guy named Chad who works at the ranch. After visiting for awhile we were on our way again.

By evening we had made it to Yellowstone with plans to sleep in our tent tonight. We discovered, however, that we were in a no-tenting area because of bear activity. Brandon and I were unsure what to do at that point because we needed somewhere to sleep tonight. We decided to call the Black Water Guest Ranch and ask Chad if he would be willing to come and get us. Chad was agreeable and soon came to pick us up at the Yellowstone entrance. What started out as an inconvenience has actually turned into great fortune for us. Tonight we are sitting around a campfire at the Black Water Guest Ranch. People from around the world--including several Britons--are staying here tonight. We have met many people and are enjoying this great opportunity. Those of you traveling to Yellowstone should definitely check out the Black Water Guest Ranch; we highly recommend it.

We hope to get at least 35 miles into Yellowstone tomorrow. The park rangers tell us that we would then be in a safe tenting area.

Good night and God bless.
