Monday (6/8)    Our plan to scrape Yellowstone did not set well with either of us.   We each had come up with a Plan B so that we could still get to Yellowstone despite the weather.  We checked into a campground in Colter Bay in the Grand Tetons in the morning.  

In the afternoon, we drove up to Yellowstone to see Old Faithful.   It was our good luck that it went off ten minutes after we got there and five minutes after that, the hail and snow began.   Given that the weather was getting pretty bad and the temperature was 32 degrees, we turned around and drove back to Colter Bay.   We we got back there, the sun was shinning and it was nice. It seems that this area has its own weather system - nice one minute and hail and snow the next.  

We drove around the campground looking for Juliet and Tom, a couple from Connecticut, and their T@B.  They are new owners and are on a five-week trip.   We met them at the evening ranger talk and visited for some time after the talk.  It was a very pleasant evening.
