Meet the Griswalds. Part Three: the slow sojourn home

Ross and I love to eat. Ross particularly loves to eat breakfast, mostly omelets. He ate a great one this morning in Ashton, ID. If you’re ever headed to West Yellowstone, we highly recommend stopping at Chriswells (or Chiswell’s) Trails In to eat. The prices are reasonable and the food is excellent.

We made it to Pocatello fast. We were in the fast car. We caught up to and passed the rest of the family in our fast car. We got the family truckster out of short term rehabilitation at the Pocatello airport and played on the grass for a while. Elliott needed some time to stretch his legs, eat a little grass, and drink a bottle. He did all of his assignments very well. He is a good boy. Ross stepped near a praying mantis and it flew at my head. I screamed. That’s twice in a few weeks that I’ve been attacked by a praying mantis.

Now, we’re driving home and so far, so good. It’s a little scary driving a car that might drop it’s transmission, but we’re being careful and we’ve got the rest of our caravan behind us.

Our little trip to Jellystone park was very short. Too short to see everything but long enough for a little baby. I can’t say that Ross and I are ambitious enough to take the baby boy anywhere for a while. He wore us out. But, we had a great time and an uneventful trip home! Thanks mom and dad.

Annie,

Your trip sounds like a lot of fun. We've been talking about taking the kids to Yellowstone for a few days so I'd love to get some suggestions on drive times and places to stay.
