Friday. We headed into the Teton national Park by 9

Friday. We headed into the Teton national Park by 9:30 am. Saw a large grizzly on the side of the road right after entering the park. A little way down the highway we saw another grizzly with 2 cubs. Traffic was backed up around the bears, but I was able to stand up with my head through the sunroof to get pictures at the first sighting. At the second sighting I just jumped out of the truck and ran ahead to get my pictures. (Post pics here) We had not planned on going through Yellowstone, but we were so close, how could we not at least drive through? We stopped at Old Faithful and had a nice picnic lunch, then continued on, exiting at West Yellowstone. We Bought groceries at West Yellowstone and then headed to Henry's Lake in Idaho. It was overcast and very chilly when we arrived. As we were setting up I saw a young bull moose just across from our site in a marshy area. (Insert pic) We Rode our bikes around Henry's Lake that evening after dinner. This is a state campground with showers. After we turned in for the evening, it started raining harder and the temperatures dropped to the 40s. We have certainly been glad that Phillip put that little heater in the Wanderlust! We didn't have one on our first trip, and didn't need it. However, it has been wet and cool this trip.
