Events of Saturday July 23, 2011 posted by Merrill on Monday

Saturday morning Marie and Mary Jane did some laundry while Stanley and I made a trip into town, (Livingston, Montana) to purchase two lug nuts to secure the wheel cover on the R.V.  Last evening after we parked Stanley noticed that the chrome wheel cover was loose and brought it to my attention. Both of the lug nuts that fasten the wheel cover had come loose and were gone, fortunately we were able to purchase replacement lug nuts and we were not delayed too much. We traveled about an hour south until we entered Yellowstone National Park. The park is so big that you really need about a week or more not just two days to see it all so we spent most of the day driving around looking at the various “Hot Spots”. While we were at one of the water falls view site my niece, Amy spotted us so we got to visit with her and her family even before we went the campground. After a short visit they went back to their camp site and we joined them later and roasted marsh mellows at their camp site. It turned out to be a long day driving around in the park. We plan to go and see “Old Faithful” tomorrow. It was a long but good day by the time we settled in at Grant Village Campground. It was so nice to see Amy, Jay, Ayla, Amy’s sister Susan, and her twin brother, Andrew, his wife Dorcas, and their son Lane.
