Our Trip

For the past few months Brian has been working crazy hours and this weekend was one of the few weekends he has had off in a while. So we decided on going on a quick trip up to Little Big Horn Battlefield. On the way there we stopped at Independence Rock. I kind of remember going there when I was about eight years old on the way to Miles City MT. It was quite neat to see it.

Here is another picture of it I thought it turned out nice.


This picture was taken on the walking trail at Little Bighorn. It was a nice little walk. I really enjoyed being able to see it. All throw out the park there are markers as to where they believed that people were killed. Some of the markers were right close to the ridges and the roadway. We visited the park on June 25th and the battle took place on June 24 and 25 in 1876. I thought it was kind of neat to visit a place when an event took place. Somewhere near the park they had a reenactment of the battle. We didn't see that though.
Then on Sunday we made our way to Yellowstone. This trip was pretty uneventful as we were not constantly stopping for puking kids, potty breaks, and extremely messy diapers. While in Yellowstone we saw a total of 5 bears. We also got stuck by a Buffalo herd on the move by the West end of the park. We also got see Old Faithful erupting.
On our way home we drove around Firehole Lake Drive and saw some of the geysers there. It was a fun trip. I think that everybody had fun.
