Monday June 28th: Up early and after a breakfast of chips, soda and left over sandwiches we were off! Until Jacob got carsick at the Wyoming border and we had to walk around a field until he felt better. Then ...we were off! The drive across Wyoming was pretty - but uneventful. I navagated, but found it increasingly difficult to follow the route because Charles had drawn a black line along the route and I kept mistaking it for the road. His road had no exits which often panicked me until I realized we were on the RED road that ran alongside the black line.
I took over driving in Buffalo WY solving that problem. That left Charles to puzzle over the map and look for the first signs of Yellowstone. And they were breathtaking when they occured.
Upon arrival at Yellowstone were were to meet up with the F's and their kids. Without cell phone coverage (by the way, my Verizon map IS bigger than my friend's ATT map), that meeting up part was difficult. But after a few hours we all ended up in the same place. The boys promptly started playing baseball with a stick, a beanbag and a tree. A buffalo played centerfield. We slept well.
