September 19, 2013.. We woke up this morning with SUNSHINE! …Yea! We went back to some of the places we had gone yesterday and made photos again since the weather was so much better. We have decided to stay here at this campground until perhaps Monday. We prefer not to travel on the weekend and we sure are enjoying it here.

We were told today they had enough snow in Yellowstone they closed one of the roads in the park yesterday. The low here in the campground got to 26 last night.

This makes our 15th straight night in a national park campground. We have not had any electric hookups nor water hookups but we have showered each night and stayed fairly comfortable. We don’t keep it as warm inside the camper as we would at home but it is fine. At night, we sleep under blankets and a down comforter. We stay very warm without the furnace running during the night while we are asleep. We run everything like lights and water pump on battery power at night and recharge the batteries during the day from solar power and power from the truck. The reason I mention this is to let anyone who is not familiar with RVing/camping learn how we can stay out in the woods comfortably in cold weather.

We remade some at Mormon Row since the weather was so bad yesterday. 






Photos along the Snake River




Late in the afternoon, we were on our way back to the campground where we are staying (Gros Ventre) and spotted this moose. It was at an appropriate place. A sign on the road identified the place as Moose Junction.
