What a great weekend

After we got off work on Sunday, we drove to Flagg Ranch Campground which is 2 miles outside the south entrance to the park. The Air Force has 10 twenty six foot camping trailers they keep there and rent for $80 a day. We went with 3 friends. Sunday night we just kind of hung out. On Monday we hiked 8 miles in to the south park of yellowstone to see Union Falls. It is the second highest waterfall in Yellowstone and it was totally awesome. We did a mile add on to scout pond which is thermally fed so the water is fairly warm and we all enjoyed the water. We then hike the 8 miles out for a total of 17 miles. We were all worn out especially Mary Ann and I. Our 3 friends were used to that distance. When we got back to the trailer we grilled steaks and cooked zuccini and potatoes on the grill. And of course drank lots of beer and wine. It was one of the best days we have had in Yellowstone. We all slept really good Monday night.
