Yellowstone

This summer we didn't travel much. We had alot of family come and go this year, which was tons of fun. Right before school started we went on a little famly trip. Every year we go to Yellowstone because we only live an hour away. It wasn't the nicest day up there but we had fun. No we didn't see Obama up there. We went the week before he was in Yellowstone.

This year we didn't see much for animals. We only saw a couple of elk, a dear, and the buffalo. If you have never been to Yellowstone you usually see tons of animals. The bears you usually find in North Yellowstone and you should bring some binoculars for them. They stay away from the road for the most part. The others you find everywhere. The buffalo are all over the park but they seem to like the area near the Dragons Caldron the most. Well, this year we were 3/4 of the way through the park and we still hadn't seen any buffalo, all the sudden we were in stand still traffic for a good half hour or longer and I was wondering what was going on. We thought someone must have hit an animal or got in an accident with another car. When we finally got to the front of the commotion we realized that ALL the buffalo in the park were in one place and since no one had seen any everyone was stopping on the road. The rangers had to keep traffic moving. That one place was right next to the Dragon Caldron.
