On August 7
th, we left for our vacation at Yellowstone. We didn't drive there in one day though. The first night we stayed at Fort Collins, CO. Jake did very well this day without getting car sick!
On Friday night, we stayed at Jackson Hole, WY. This city was awesome! It had a great downtown area with nice shops and the food was to-die-for! We stayed at the Antler Inn. It was a small hotel whose rooms looked like cabins from the inside. I would love to go here again in the future sometime.
Finally, on Saturday we made our way to the park. On the way there, we saw the magnificent Grand Tetons. They are the most beautiful mountains I have ever seen. When we got into Yellowstone, we went and saw Old Faithful and some hot springs. That night, we were greeted by many buffalo eating grass outside our cabin window. Audrie thought it was the neatest thing in the world, besides Hannah Montana.
Sunday, we explored the park a bit. Drove up to Mammoth Springs and had lunch and then ventured into Montana where Jake got car sick. Poor guy! I sure didn't enjoy being puked on either! That night we had to do laundry.
On Monday, we stayed at Gillette WY at the Holiday Inn Express. That night, we went over to John Ayres' house for dinner. Jake enjoyed playing with his daughter Alyssa.
On our last day/night, we stayed at the Days Inn at Sidney, NE. Audrie enjoyed acting silly while swimming in the pool. We ate at the Pizza Hut Bistro for supper and then went to Cabelas for our entertainment. The Cabelas at Sidney isn't as impressive as the one in KC.
We were all glad to be home on Thursday. It gets pretty boring driving all the time, especially when Jake is getting car sick and Audrie's had too much sugar.
