Kory and I got out of town this weekend. We like to pick a temple and make a little road trip out of it. We decided to drive to Billings and attend the temple there. We took off on Friday, driving through West Yellowstone, Big Sky, and Bozeman (beautiful drive). We got to Billings in time to eat dinner and make a session at the temple.
On the way to Billings, I was looking at some travel brochures in a gas station and noticed this pamphlet about the Beartooth Scenic Byway. It looked really interesting, so we checked out the map and decided to head home via that road and go through Yellowstone National Park.
We took off bright and early. This was SUCH a pretty drive. All kinds of scenery and it levels out at about 11,000 feet, so it's like driving over the top of Table Rock. Then you drop down and see all of these alpine lakes and waterfalls and then you hit Yellowstone. I've never taken that entrance to Yellowstone, so we saw some nice scenery there. We didn't have time to see a lot in the park, so we went to the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and hiked around a little before heading home.
Great road trip. We really love these getaways. It's fun and gives us a chance to talk and have fun.
