August 29th, 1913-Friday

Left camp little later than usual.  Stopped in town of West Yellowstone a short time for supplies as no more places to stop for groceries until we reach home--90 miles.  Had our lunch at Henry's Lake.  Bad storm came up while we were along the lake.  We drove around the lake and camped at a sheep camp over night.  Rain and wind storm all during the night.  Popped some corn in the evening.





Oliver & Bertha Kurtz--who organized the trip, taking his family, mother, sisters and friends.  Bertha was the head cook and I am sure they chaperoned the young kids!



This maybe the only picture of Grandpa Shaffner (John F. Shaffner) on a mule.  I don't remember the Shaffner's ever having a mule.



The diary has no mention of elk or buffalo.


Isn't that interesting?
