Day 60!

We have officially reached day 60 of the "Ultimate Road Trip" and we are amazed that living in a camping trailer has not driven us crazy! But the touring is the key-so much beautiful country and interesting people to talk to.

We spent Day 59 in Yellowstone, a repeat visit. It has its own beauty but I am a lover of snow capped peaks and tall mountains. Geysers-not so much. I'm just sayin'...

Having seen Old Faithful blow its top a couple of times, we decided to travel to a new section. Mammoth Geyser, Gibbon Falls and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. Along the way we spotted many buffalo and elk.

This was the final tourist stop on the grand trip! We are planning to camp a few more days in Idaho and then head to the Ruby Mountains in Nevada before the final push home. We are giving the wildfire, smoke and heat a chance to clear out.

There is one picture included of a black bear swimming its way toward our trailer! Bob spotted him on the shoreline of the lake and soon he was headed our way. We had left the grill out from dinner so Bob decided he better get it put away. Just opening the door, diverted its attention so that he turned around and swam back to shore. But the camp hosts are alerting us of many bear sightings in the campground. So we are to be alert.

Would I do this trip again-in a heartbeat! I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys beautiful wilderness, breath-taking scenery, spotting wildlife and has a bit of adventure in their blood. For now, Two B's on the Road will head home and readjust. About January I will start planning the next trip!
