Mister Fenn– on your way to Yellowstone every summer, did you have the opportunity to stop and enjoy some of the things along the way? What were some of your most memorable stops on your road trips? JD

JD,  Our family of 5 did a lot of sight-seeing at 35 MPH for 1,600 miles. We always had a big canvas water bag tied on the front of the car. Periodically my father would stop on a lonely stretch and let everyone out to walk around for a few minutes, and get a cool drink.

Two places we always stopped were the giant Montgomery-Wards store in Denver, and Hell’s Half Acre, between Casper and Shoshoni. Of course there were food and bathroom breaks too.

Those respites were always welcome because we were 4 hot days on the road with no air conditioning and no radio. I always dreaded those long rides, especially when it was my turn to sit in the middle. f

Best of luck with all that you seek!  Treasure the Adventure!
