Days 3-6

---

We did not have internet service in Glacier National Park the past two days so unfortunately I couldn't post anything. We are currently in Gardiner, Montana, just outside Yellowstone National Park. We spent Monday driving about 500 miles from Billings to Glacier. Monday we explored Glacier and drove the Highway to the Sun. Today we drove about 500 miles from Glacier down to Yellowstone National Park and we spent a few hours this evening driving around the park. Tomorrow we are spending the day in Yellowstone. I'm going to keep this short because it is late and I still have to post photos so I will allow the photos do the talking for me.

Hi Brian, It sounds like you and your dad are having a great time. By the way say hi for me. I just wanted to let you know someone is reading your blogs besides your mother and enjoying them. It's nice how I can travel all over with you and never leave my house. I'll look forward to your next posting. Aunt Eileen
