Our last day in Yellowstone-heading out of the park. Donuts and coffee on the road again. We drove and drove with our only planned stops to be the Hayden Valley area, Mud Volcano and Yellowstone Lake-all on the east side of the park.
We saw a couple of gray wolves near Hayden Valley (can you guess what that wolf is doing?), along with several bison-some up close. The mud volcano was a lot of fun........ahh, the smell of sulphur, smells like Yellowstone! We also saw and heard the Dragon's Cauldron-which bellowed out steam and sounded like a loud guttural kind of gasp. That was cool! Then it was on to Yellowstone Lake for some rock collecting. We saw another grizzly on our way out of the park too.
We stopped in Cody on our way through for a quick lunch and cowboy hats. I had to take a picture in front of the Irma Hotel, which Buffalo Bill built for his daughter. Then it was on to Thermopolis, WY for our next stay and a visit to the Wyoming Dinosaur Center. Didn't look like much from the road, but was a great stop-other than the community seemed a little strange.
