Thursday, Aug 22, 1929 - Pocatello, ID


After we had had breakfast this morning we met the man (Mr. Wisdon) that we ate supper with last night. After talking to him a while we went down to the cabin and got loaded up. The first thing we did was to go into the little town that used to be an army post and Pop drew a check. Then we got some gas and started up the hill where the beautiful springs are! We had to go back past the lodge to go to the buffalo corral. We saw the show herd and one elk that I took pictures of. Between Manmoth and the West Gate I saw several beautiful scenes in spectacular such as the Golden Gate, the Glass Mountain and Falls and much beautiful scenery in general. Just outside the gate is the town of West Yellowstone. We stopped at a cafeteria here for lunch. The first part of our trip was thru a forest reserve which was pretty and the roads fine but after we left there the roads weren’t so good. They were better than Montana roads however but they were almost as dusty. We’re tired tonight and hot. An old fashioned hotel and chinese cooking. Somehow they don’t fit me just right.
