May 26
Hi you all, we left Parker, CO and headed for the great north. We camped in Glendo, WY the first night.
May 27
We visited Worland WY and stayed with dear old friends, Ed and Mary Lou Hunter. After a wonderful visit and great hospitality we again headed on our way.
May 28 On to Cody WY and a few sights and then ventured into Yellowstone!! It's always so beautiful. It was however cool and still have a LOT of snow and Yellowstone Lake was still iced over believe it or not! We were treated to some very close up looks at buffalo on the road on our way out of the Park.
We then spent one night in Butte MT.
May 30 we left Butte and camped at Anaconda for 2 nights. From that park we drove the car to Gem Mountain and we had a ball mining for Sapphires, a real fun adventure! We found 2 good ones to cut and 4 that were big enough but had a couple of flaws. Also lots of small ones. We'll have to decide later if we want to have them heat treated and faceted. It was a little pricey so we'll see if we have any money left after the vacation.
We visited a lovely community church in Phillipsburg for worship and then on to Missoula.
So here we are ready to head north again and God speed to us and all our loved ones.
