President Obama and the First Family spent the morning at Yellowstone National Park today, touring the Black Sands Basin - geothermal pools - and then Old Faithful - arriving just in time to see the geyser start to rumble.

After touring the park, the President brought his daughter Malia and Sasha and 3 other unidentified children to the local general store for ice cream. According to the press along for the ride, strawberry, mint chocolate chip and "Stuck in a Rut" were the flavors of choice. Potus was seen sharing some of his oldest daughter's strawberry cone.

Mr Obama and the rest of the family then said farewell to Montana and headed on to Colorado for a town hall on health care.
