A large collection of potato mashers
Breakfast was at the Bigelow. It is a nice old hotel, but is certainly somewhat faded in places; it seems to have undergone a remodeling in the 1970s, judging by the odd colors and the strange false walls here and there. Reminds us of the Eureka Inn in northern California; lovely, but would have been really special back in 1930. Today’s drive was only 460 miles compared to the 760 of yesterday, but time was spent on a lot of state roads going over mountains and of course in the National Parks, so progress was slow. The potato museum in Blackfoot was great; not too big, but the displays were well done and it was just the right size. We were given two boxes of dehydrated hash browns because we were ‘out of staters’.
In Yellowstone, we arrived only twenty minutes or so before Old Faithful blew, so good planning on our part then. Saw a deer with huge antlers and a group of three bears.
This is very cool! Impressed that you spared no expense and have a photographer on payroll (great shot of the grass). Who’s driving, “small” or “talls”?
Tall and parental drivers only. The potato museum shot was taken by placing the iPhone on a metal stand constructed by a group of Eagle Scouts; what a great project.
Have fun!
Looking good there – we should have taken a pic to match at the Museum of Ham that we came across in Buenos Aires earlier today… Safe journey and see you soon in New York!

Yep, looking forward to the Corn Museum tomorrow…
I love the family pictures! Looks like a ton of fun!
