YELLOWSTONE 2008

And so our first family vacation begins with a long camping trip to Yellowstone National Park.

July 21, 2008 - The first animals of the trip were the great buffalo. They were huge and we all had to get out and see them. We also had a fantastic view of the GREAT TETON Mountains.




July 22, 2008 - We saw Lewis Lake and a Double Rainbow after some brief shows. Mitchell and Madi enjoyed some sibling love on the dock. We also saw GREAT OLD FAITHFUL. She was beautiful. It was a little warm, but nothing some $14.00 ice cream couldn't cool down. I will let you be the judge if the money was worth it, I think so.









July 23, 2008 - Mud Volcano, Paint Pots and more Geysers!






July 24, 2008 - We started out a little slow and enjoyed some P.J. time in the trailer and a hot breakfast! Today we saw a TON of wild life. We saw deer, elk, buffalo, and even 2 grizzly bears. **************








July 25, 2008 - We spent the day in Jackson, WY. We went to the fish hatchery and the boys did a little fishing. We visited down town Jackson square, walked thru a few shops and then enjoyed the live entertainment of a "Wild West Shoot Out." Oh, and Mason got a much needed bath in the trailer sink!





July 26, 2008 - Yellow Stone Lake, a little breezy but the kids could not resist the water! Dad tried fishin', but that's all that happened, a lot of fishin', no catchin'!
