Chilly weather-September 14, 2011

It turned chilly and very windy last night here at the park. As is true with all canyons, the wind increases as it tries to force itself down the narrow opening of the canyon. So, we had to keep that in mind in order to sleep. It was so overcast this morning we decided not to go to Yellowstone. We did not want the clouds to obstruct our view of the mountains. We'll go tomorrow. Instead today we went to the town of Livingston. It was not windy there. We walked up and down the streets and in and out of one shop after another. It's a very art oriented community. It goes without saying the art is western and not beach type things that we are used to. It's fun to see the difference. While in town we were able to see the tops of some of the mountains we missed driving here. They are very nice indeed. It was in the 40s today, a tad cooler than we wanted to deal with, but it is supposed to be back in the 80s by Friday. We are talking about what we want to do after this stop. It is really nice here and it would be fun to be lazy here. But you can't see the country sitting still.
