The rugged, beautiful scenery of Yellowstone captured our attention for the last few days. The scenery combined with the helpful, friendly park rangers made Yellowstone a memorable place for us.

As the morning sun was shining on our campsite, we said goodbye to Madison, Wyoming, and started on the road again. Near west Yellowstone Brandon and I stopped at a KFC and devoured an 8-piece family meal. We topped that off with parfaits and ice cream.

Highway 20 ushered us out of Wyoming, through heavy rain and pelting hail in Montana, and then into Idaho. As much as we liked Yellowstone, we are happy to once again see stores and houses and leave Mr. Grizzly behind.

By the time we finished walking today we had almost 36 miles logged. When we were done for the day we checked into a small hotel near Island Park, Idaho. Normally we try to camp out as many days as possible and hadn't planned to stay in a hotel quite yet. However, we really needed to bathe, and the comfort of a nice bed was irresistible. Getting cleaned up and sleeping in beds will make us both happy.

Tomorrow we will continue on Highway 20, and we hope to make it to Idaho Falls by Thursday night. We are down to just two states to go - Idaho and Oregon!
