Traveling south into Yellowstone National Park.
The Yellowstone River
Our first upclose look at the thermal activity
that is prevalent throughout the park. Just hoping
the whole place doesn't errupt.
Picnicing in Yellowstone
This guy patiently waited in a tree about 30 yds away
while we had our lunch. The minute we left the table
he was on it like a fly on ****
Hot Spring. Super heated water(up to 400 degrees F
at its depth) rises, then cools, then sinks again to be
super heated and rise again. On going natural
circulation. Don't want to stick your piggys in there!!!
Beautifully colored landscape.Compliments of
mother nature.
Just makes ya want to take a bath, huh?
Ok, what happens if Old Faithful isn't faithful??
A lot of unhappy people, I bet. But "she" was
faithful in this day.
Old Faithful teasing everyone.
Tada!!! "She" remained faithful......
One last shot before we ran to the car
to beat the traffic and head further south.
Grand Tetons. Can't get enough of these views.
I think I could sit and look at this scene all day. As
the sun and the clouds move it is forever changing.
Home, home on the range. Open range at that.
Almost to Jackson Hole.
One of the famous elk antler arches located on all
four corners of this park in downtown Jackson, WY
A reflection back to the old west.
A view down one of the main streets from balcony
of restaurant where we dined outside.
Pretty good sized herd.
They decide it was time to show the tourists just who's
park this really is.
What you lookin at??
Ho Hum. A couple of little bucks crossing the road.
Late afternoon view of the Tetons.
One of a variety of scenes you experience as you pass
through Yellowstone
Lake Yellowstone
Couple of elk cows relaxing by the lake.
This is a view from our campground on the Yellowstone River
Ah, Montana.
Arrived at the campground on the Yellowstone River about 18 miles south of Livingston last Monday afternoon. Journeyed south on Tuesday all the way through Yellowstone National Park to Jackson, WY and back. Now that was a long but enjoyable trip. I wanted Charlotte to see Jackson and it seemed like once we got to the middle of the park I hated not to go on. Needless to say, we were both wore out from that trip. So much so, we didn't go back into the park at all the rest of our stay. The setting at the campground was so peaceful we rarely left the rest of the week. Charlotte did venture into the grocery store in Livingston and found a quilt shop to investigate. We also found a nice restaurant in Livingston, recommended by our nephew, Randy, that brought us back a second time. The Montana's Rib and Chop House. Highly recommend it if you are ever in the vicinity. New York Strip is out of this world good. We left our setting on the Yellowstone River Monday and headed to Cody, WY for a week. Looking forward to taking in the sights and sounds, as well as a taste or two, of the offerings there.
