Wonderful Western Wyoming!

After roughly 50 years, I was finally able to visit Yellowstone National Park again. Alan and I drove there after watching Eric's kids (see earlier post).

On the way up, we were able to stop at the Grand Tetons. We didn't have much time there, but we were able to take a few pics.

The Tetons are so majestic. We loved it there.

We also drove through Jackson Hole and saw their iconic antler arches. We were not able to stop to get pictures of us in front of them, but this will do.

Of course, the highlight was Yellowstone. We were blessed to see so many National Parks this year, but Yellowstone is definitely our favorite.  

While in Yellowstone, Alan started smoking

and I started drinking.

The reality of falling prey to these vices made me blow my top.

We saw some wildlife while there. This huge buffalo crossed the road right in front of our car. 

Some favorite pics of the nature there.

Of course, the highlight of Yellowstone is always Old Faithful. She was sure faithful the day we saw her blow her top - within a minute or two of when we expected it.

We stayed in the Antelope Lodge at Grant Village. (The Lodge itself is behind the trees)

This was the cutest bar of soap ever. Just had to take a picture of it.
