We woke up this morning to discover that it had snowed overnight, but only about 4 cm of light fluffy variety.

The thermometer read -15C.

We drove into the town, looking for a grocery store, but did not find one. So we hit the road.

So far this has been the rule - a bit of snow when we leave, but very soon clear roads and good driving.

_D7A5024 We drove past Billings to Livingston, and then turned south and headed toward Yellowstone.

We took a motel room in Gardiner, gateway to Yellowstone, for the next two nights.

With the bitterly cold temperatures at Silver Star, we are in no hurry to get there.
