610 miles, but the weather was excellent and Yellowstone is much nicer without rain and poor visibility. You get the short version again tonight unless GB wants to get over here and be verbose.
We ate at Bubba's BBQ right after we snagged the last room at the Best Western here in Cody...just ahead of a sweet little old lady and her frail husband. We dashed to the door to beat them out of the room. I had to yell "squirrel" to distract her. Actually, they were walking in right after we checked in. More fun to make it sound like we went for the steal though.
GB is now taking over. My turn at the shower, which I need very much.
Well gang, it was a travel day and we hit the interstate (84) to get some miles as quickly as possible. It was hard for me to pass up the Dog Exhibit in Pocatello, "Wolf To Woof" and Big Bear pouted for almost an hour when I wouldn't stop at the Potato Museum in Blackfoot.
Yellowstone was spectacular as usual with all kinds of up close wildlife including, buffalo, deer, elk, and eagles. We watched Old Faithful do its thing, right on time, then scooted through the rest of the park rather quickly as we tried to put some miles behind us. Big Bear has decided he has seen all he wants to see and it is time to head South toward home. I can tell he is getting homesick when a moose walked out with an eagle on his antlers and a black bear on his back and Big Bear said, oh it's just another critter, let's ride !!
We passed a motel in Cody, WY, as we came into town, "Big Bear Motel", but he wasn't interested in a photo so you will just have to use your imagination around how cute it was.
I'm tired and homesick to see my sweetie also. Three more days and we should be home.
Big Bear promises more photos soon, right now he just seems to want to snore. Oh well, bears are like that.
GB for da Bears

It sounds like you won, Sweetie! You broke him ~ he's had enough and is ready to get home to his honey (honey-do)! So, Ray, you have to admit, he is like the Energizer Bunny ~ he WILL keep going and going. Thank Goodness you were with him, or there is no telling WHEN I would see him again! Still, you should have gotten your picture taken at the Big Bear Inn, as well as at the Yellowstone entrance sign! How will we know you were REALLY there! Love you both ~ now come on HOME!
