Who needs Yellowstone.
Even though there are 5 - 600 buffalos on the island, since they have no preditors, they do not remain together in a big herd. 
This coyotte was about 500 yards away.
Finally some Buffalo, I mean Bison. There are about 500 on the Island making it the largest herd in the US.
We had a great time inspite of everything!
Mountains and the Great Salt Lake all around. The island is about 28,000 acres.
It was a cloudy day, but it was beautiful.
We also decided to go to Antelope Island. OK I decided so I could use my new camera.
They are tearing down the old ZCMI>
Everyone enjoyed the program. It was a special one for Veterans Day.
So we decided to drive back to Salt Lake. Go shopping, do dinner, and go see the MoTab on Sunday morning.
They had bears, but they were in cages so we took this one was easier to photograph
We saw wolves.
So we decided to go to the Bear and Wolf exhibit in West Yellowstone.
Now what do we do? Well we could walk into the park, but it is about 30 miles to Old Faithful and its cold.
Much to our great dismay and disbelief, the park closes after the first Sunday in November each year. They do not want to plow the roads so that snowmobiles and snow coaches can enter the park starting Dec 15. Who knew? Obviously not us!
After spending the night in Idaho Falls and a total of 5 hours driving, we finally got to Yellowstone. 
This truck went off in a ditch. It was full of frozen onion rings. Do not think anyone was hurt.
The roads got a little worse the closer we got. Idaho does not like to plow.
A Trip to Walmart for last minute things we forgot.
