We took Aaron to Henry's Lake. It was free fishing day, so it worked out perfectly! He was such a trooper getting up at 3:30 in the morning! He is quite the fisherman. He caught a 2 lb. Cutthroat and a 1 lb. brook trout. Travis caught the biggest fish of the day, a Hybrid weighing 3 1/2 lbs! But he is still waiting for his 20 lb fish.. It is somewhere out there in the lake. After we had finished fishing we took Aaron to Yellowstone National Park. He had never been. It was only about 15 minutes from where we had been fishing. When we got to the park, we didn't have to pay because it was free park day! It was awesome! We saw a LOT of buffalo, two elk and a few deer. But never any bears. We walked around the different hot spots and eventually made it to Old Faithful. It was kind of pathetic though... It was really windy and it started hailing right before it erupted! So it wasn't that cool because the wind and hail made it not explode as high. But overall it was fun to see the animals and cool (well I guess hot) sites and it was a quite ride home.
