7.04.2012 Yellowstone National Park

Today is the shortest moving day of the trip.  40 miles from Colter Bay in Grant Teton to Grant Village in Yellowstone.  Since we supposedly couldn’t check in until 11 a.m. we had some time to burn.

rvsue had mentioned on her blog that she used bounce dryer sheets and a bowl of water to clean the bugs off of the front of her trailer.  The front of our trailer was a mess so I had to give it a try.  Great tip!  The sheets have just enough texture to them to take the bugs off pretty easily and a paper towel to dry it left the trailer looking much better.  You can see in the picture the before (left side of picture) and after.

We had a reservation at Grant Village which assures you’ll have a place but not a specific place.  Once again we ended up on the “wrong” side of the drive, but there were enough empty sites this morning that we were able to leverage sites on each side of the road and were just barely able to do a u-turn to get our door facing the table, etc.

We headed out to Old Faithful, hoping that we'd see animals - no such luck.  We’ll be here until Sunday morning.
