Yellowstone: Day 5

Saturday, Grandma and Bumpa had to work again but we had plenty to do. Grant and Evy went to a Smoke Jumpers class and learned all about how the Smoke Jumpers did their job. Barry, a retired Smoke Jumper taught the all about fires and what they need to burn and how the spread with some great demonstrations. We learned how they got out of a tree if they were "caught up" and what they carried around in the forest and how they actually fought the fires. It was really cool and I'm glad we did it. Then we went back to to hotel because across the street there was a car show. We walked around and looked at all the old, bright and funny cars. Grant had fun guessing what type of car they were and he even thinks he found a Flynn McMissle from Cars 2. We thought we'd try the pool out again but it was chilly this time and so we didn't last too long. The kids were excited for dinner and Grant helped Grandma cook and outdoor meal for his scout stuff. Grandma also had a lot of patch sewing to do. Grant and Evy had earned 3 patches each from their Jr. Ranger, Smoke Jumpers and Young Scientist programs and Grant had some scouting badges to put on his uniform. We then had dinner and the campground dog, Marley, came over to visit. You can see how much Grant likes dogs and I thought it was so funny he was up on the bench, he's still in a squat for the family photo I took minutes later. That was a fun time!
