Grizzles, Markets, and Brews

Tuesday 9/13/11

Sadly we left Yellowstone.  Much more still to see but we must move on.  Leaving the park on the west entrance we came by Grizzly and Wolf  Discovery Center.  Facinating info.  Now you can ask us the difference between a Grizzly and a Black Bear.  Great displays, videos, and the best was the real live bears, wolves and coyotes.  I could have snuck a picture of the bears or wolves in this blog and said we met them on a hike but I'll be honest and tell you they were taken at this center.  Don't miss it if you are ever in West Yellowstone. 




The drive to Bozeman, Montana was so beautiful.  The road just weaved along the Gallatin River and in through canyons.  Must be great fishing as we saw lots of fishers in waders.  In Bozeman, it happened to be Tues. Farmer's Market Day from 5-8 PM.  What a great market.  Bigger than we expected.  And on Saturdays there is an even bigger one.  Local Produce, Music, lots of food, jewelry, crafts, rock climbing.  Why cook when there is all this wonderful local food!  People were there with their dogs, kids played on the swing sets and Jeff talked to a local fellow while I went back through all the the stalls and of course had some sweets.  Next stop was at The Montana Ale Works (great bldg.) for a local brew where we met an interesting couple who live in Bozeman and love it.
Another busy and fun day.

I went alone to Amsterdam, took the Thayls train to France, met my sister-in-law at the apt I rented. We saw everything! Loved a restaurant/boat cruise, We were so happy hugging each other saying OMG! I am sure the bottle of champagne and then a btl of red wine that they served had something to do with it! haha.
