Since I'm backdating a few posts
and putting some pictures from our Summer Trips
I decided I'd do one of our Yellowstone Adventure
that we did in June with my parents!
We drove through Cody, WY
and stopped at the Teepee where Buffalo Bill Cody
used to take his friends to go hunting
Our first stop in the National Park
was the Lake front where we worked on
learning to skip rocks on the water!
Jacob took a little snooze in the car...
but everybody else threw rocks like champs!
A heart rock!
The kids and I made this shirt for Dad
for his Father's Day gift!
"Stronger than Superman,
Braver than Captain America,
Wiser than Yoda,
Cooler than Double 0 Seven"
Next stop,
mud pots and paint pots,
hot pools and Dragon's Breath caves
(it smells sometimes- see Tay's face!)
There was some snow melting in the parking lot,
and Buela just had to capture it on camera!
We're grateful for this trusty car,
that can comfortably fit all 7 of us
We hiked along a path
to get the perfect view of the Lower Yellowstone Falls
We did pretty well with wildlife sightings:
Elk mamas and babies,
Many birds (including white pelicans), bison, and deer
One of my favorite things about the thermal pools
is the color contrast between
blue and orange!
Nature's beautiful display of complimentary colors.
We enjoyed Old Faithful--
although it was 20 minutes later than estimated "blow" time.
The place was very crowded by the time it blew.
I think we all enjoyed the other thermal pools
more than we did the geyser, lol!
We headed home after such a great two-day trip.
Thanks for comin' with us Buela and Buelo!
What a blast!
