Visiting the East Entrance to Yellowstone

The day looked promising so we decided to go to the east entrance of Yellowstone National Park. The east entrance is only open from 6am to 10am due to an avalanche and if you don't get out you will add another 6 hours to your trip. We decided to just got to the entrance and return to Cody. Just going to the entrance is a beautiful ride. The ride takes you over some fantastic views and is worth the trip. We ate at the only place open, where Buffalo Bill's Hunting Lodge is situated. Since buffalo was on the menu we had to have the speciality "The Buffalo Burger."  It tasted better than beef and was a different consistancy. Suzanne found a very pretty coat that she had to have. OH boy coat number ??  they all have different purposes:) We saw long horn sheep, a buffalo and our first Moose. Overall a GREAT day!  Thank goodness the world didn't end today, we have too much left to see!
