Old Faithful

Tuesday we headed out to see Old Faithful which lived up to its name, erupting just as we arrived and again 90 minutes later after we had a chance to explore the Inn and have some lunch.

We took our seats to wait along with hundreds of others on the benches around the geyser.  It was a most impressive sight, with water shooting dozens of feet into the air.

The weather became a little less perfect as we watched the storms roll in across the mountains.  Patrick found National Park Monopoly at the visitor center which became a perfect rainy day activity.
Later Dad grilled up some delicious steaks and potatoes between the raindrops.

Have we mentioned the patches and piles of unmelted snow everywhere?  It's still quite cold at night, and snow is in the forecast for Saturday!

Pics to follow.
