    Question Vacation-suggestions on shops, etc

    Hubby and I are leaving MO next week to head up to Yellowstone Natl park. Not sure our exact route yet, but does anyone know of places we should stop? Thinking KS, NE, SD, WY, CO
    Thanks!

    If you have time you might like to try and go thru Glacier Ntl park going up farther north. It is beautiful country. My DH and I were in Kalispell this summer and toured the area which is breathtaking. As far as quilt shops go, there is one in Kalispell that is full of fabric, notions and quilt displays. I think Montana is beautiful anyway as I was born and raised there. Enjoy your trip and hope you find lots of quilt shops to browse thru.

    Not sure where you are in MO, but if it's south of I-70, check out Lil Red Hen in Paola KS (and except on Mondays when they are all closed, several nice restaurants nearby), also, Prairie Point in Shawnee, KS; Bits & Pieces in Eudora, KS and Sarah's Fabrics in Lawrence, KS (you could go from Prairie Point, to Bits & Pieces to Sarah's via K-10 Hwy headed west and then get on I-70 in Lawrence).

    Are most of those shops near KC? I think we'll be heading west on I 70 and when we come back, may come back down through CO

    If you are going into Montana, my DD and I went to the Little Big Horn and it was fantastic. You can walk some of it - but one way to do it, you drive to the various points and use your cel phone to get story of it. You just dial into it, so you have your own personal tour of it.
