Day One: This $&*@ is About to Get Western

We got to our first stop, a tiny resort just outside Yellowstone, where the rather gruff check in lady informed us that there had been a problem with our reservation and we would be staying in the deluxe $190 a night cabin for the price of our originally requested economy cabin. I immediately envisioned the Ritz Carleton of log cabin luxury. What we found instead was quantity, not quality-- the skankiest accommodations with room to sleep 20. So we jumped on the extra beds and then headed down to the river.


After we spent some quality riverfront time, we went to the local playhouse for dinner and a play. Mandi challenged the banjo player to a duel of the banjos, which he happily accepted. If you look closely, I think you can see him falling in love with her. Dinner was ok but we got bored and ended up skipping the actual play. Whoops.

an air duel of the banjos might just be the most genius thing i have ever heard of!

Hey that's the new dress you wore to work! I finally saw you repeat an outfit. Although, you're not wearing the cowboy boots...so it's a little different.
