... and the Porcelain Basin. We saw several buffalo in the fields and on the road today. We stopped at Roaring Mountain which still has steam rolling out of vents along its side. The last few miles as we approached Mammoth Hot Spring were spectacular with several switchbacks around the cliffs and mountains. At the bottom were the Hot Springs that formed a series of falls down a hill.

As our time in Yellowstone came to an end we drove north into Montana and stayed in Bozeman at the WalMart.

Ennis, is a beautiful little town, its famous for  its trout fishing. The Madison river runs thru the town and the Ruby River is in the next valley. Brent fished the Ruby in the morning  and the Madison in the evening. Jo visited the nearby cowboy towns of Nevada City and Virginia city, these little towns are amazing, we hope to come back next year.

We were a day early getting to our reserved spot at the Yellowstone North entrance so this site was recommended to us. It was a nice relaxing park right by the Yellowstone River. The river is swift flowing and not very deep. It seems like most of the people here flyfish and the current moves them swiftly north and I am not quite sure how they get back it seems like a heck of alot of rowing.

Didn't do much today but relax.

... two feet tall, a foot wide and about five inches thick, with a torn cloth cover. Wow -- we're old! Looking under the our initial and then by date, there we were, written in ball point pen. It was kinda cute. I can get my passport now!

After this we drove through the rest of downtown, then down 19th Street. This huge retail suburban area did not exist when I lived here!

We stopped into Bozeman for a couple days to visit Tom Starner and family - wife Kelly Ann, and kids Savanah, Joey, and Bailey. Darren roomed with Tom during his balla' days at UTSA and was coached at UTSA by Tom's dad Stu. We had a great time with a great family in a great area...great!

... still snowed over! In addition, whereas Mammoth has a year-round population of about 7,000 people which makes it (barely) a town in its own right, the town of Big Sky seems to have very little besides seasonal staff and vacationers: only 1,500 full time residents. We couldn't even find one open coffee shop! So all in all this is going to be a pretty boring ...

Well as you all know we made it back safe and sound to American winter. It took us a while to adjust to the cold, but we moved back to Big Sky, Montana and are shredding it up on the slopes. We've been catching up with the usual suspects and buying new equipment to shred the nar on. Tara and I went out for dinner on my birthday and Ben & Dave waited on ...
