September 6, 2010 Yellowstone Labor Day





Lets give thanks to the unionists of the late 19th century for this wonderful end of the summer holiday! And thanks to all who labor to make this country a great one!




In Yellowstone, at Fishing Creek this morning it was 26 degrees, with a light snow covering the trees. We were driving the lower loop today. We stopped at various overlooks, and bison were everywhere,but spent time at the Norris geyser basin, which was really spectacular. We walked the 1.5 mile loop path. We then drove to the midway geyser basin, where the Grand Prismatic spring was located. Beautiful colors. Thought this was the highlight of the day, until our next stop, which was Old Faithful. We got a seat and waited......... It finally erupted and beautifully so.
