The story begins with our trip across the country. Scott and I began in Burlington, VT and ended in Seattle, passing through Yellowstone National Park and The Badlands along the way. Pictures say more than words (at least in this scenario) so I've selected some of my favorite shots to post here for you.
P.S. Many thanks to the family that housed and helped us along the way! Because of you, we didn't have to eat peanutbutter sandwiches for every meal! (We are eternally grateful!)
Near Devil's Tower
Look, Mom! Forget-me-nots!
The Badlands
The yellow and red layers were topsoil back in the days when this was all rainforest.
Scott was getting artistic with the camera.
If this photo could speak, it would say, "Postcard me.'
The Zoo
"Move along! Nothing to see. No reindeer here. Nope."
"AHhhhh. Now THAT'S the spot!"
Yellowstone National Park
This was the view as we approached Yellowstone...
True or False: Scott managed to take this picture while running away from the charging bison. (What a man!) [See the panel on the right for answers!]
True or False: ...Suddenly we realized that the mother grizzly and her two cubs were but forty feet away...
A quiet moment of meditation... Who would have guessed that just few minutes later I would rip a large hole in the butt of my pants?
Thar she blows!! (Old Faithful)
Where's the bison lane???
BISON BUTT!
THEY WERE EVERYWHERE!!!!
To boldy go where no man has gone before...
I wanted to get closer, but Scott was afraid the deer would charge me. Pffaah!
I win.
