On the Road Again

We left Mountain View yesterday and drove for about 13 hours. It was long day and we drove through California, Nevada, and ended up in Salt Lake City, Utah. Again, the ride was stunning. I did not realize that there is actually salt everywhere as you enter Salt Lake City! Driving into the city, the salt flats lined the highway, and everything was white. It was so bizarre.

We left Salt Lake City this morning and headed through the Sierra Mountains into Idaho and then on to Wyoming. As you can see from the picture of Gwenny sleeping in the back of the car she doesn't think that the views are any big deal.

Last minute, we decided to visit the Grand Teton National Park on the way the Yellowstone. I never even knew this beautiful park even existed. We didn't see any bears at Yellowstone, but the buffalo were everywhere. I tried to convince Kurt to get a buffalo burger for dinner, but he just couldn't after seeing them roaming through Yellowstone. We landed in Cody, Wyoming after driving through Shoshone National Park. We got in too late to go to the rodeo across the street. Thank goodness!

We are exhausted. Maybe we will get to sleep in until at least 6 tomorrow morning.
