Home time: Fall break

10/23/2011

3 Comments

 
I found out early last week that the kids had the last couple of days off for Fall break.  My wife and middle daughter had too much to do (read: a bit of stuff to do and a strong desire to be homebodies), so I took my son to Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks.
Yellowstone will be closing down most of their roads in a couple of weeks, so here at the end of the season, it's a much more quiet park than it was even a few weeks ago.  The weather was cool but not bad.  Friday there was a period of snow and light rain, but it cleared off and gave us a beautiful showing for an Old Faithful blast.
Saturday was a bit nicer, which afforded great views of West Thumb, the Upper and Lower Yellowstone Falls, Grand Prismatic Spring and lots of countryside between.  I'll say that the hike back up from the Lower Yellowstone Falls was a real workout -- my goal was to do it all in one go, which I did, but it was a sweat-raising experience.  A 300+ foot waterfall with that much water was definitely worth it.

Great site, i've been thinking about getting a free blog from weebly, do you recommend it?

Yes, weebly.com makes the creation of web sites drop dead simple and easy to make nice looking.

I would have said, "Unquestioningly," except that the Reply button on the author's page isn't working. That's the only issue I've run across so far, but I certainly have not exercised the capabilities of the site builder.

Overall, I'd say "Absolutely!" It's a great service, well delivered.
