Some more on Yellowstone last week.







OK I just did not do our quick day trip justice with my other posts and pictures (or lack there of) so I wanted to share a bit more. Yes, it did in fact rain MOST of the day but there was a time when we first got into the park when the weather was fair so we did the walk through Steamboat Geiser and it was nice. Then it rained. And it rained. And..... it rained. I almost called on Noah and asked him to call it off I tell ya! ROTF! So here is a photo review of our trip to Yellowstone, rain and all.

So, the photos are as follows: the blue/green pool of water is the Emerald Spring Hot Pool, beautiful! Then there are the kids standing by Fearless Geiser... not a great picture in general but shows we were there. LOL There is the little chipmunk who was right up close not 4 ft away until I went to take the picture and he ran down a good 10 feet from me! Grrr! This was all in the Steamboat Geiser walk.
Also the kids riding in the car..... Tiffany read a huge portion of her NEW Harry Potter book on this drive. Micheal entertained himself with HotWheels cars for hours too. OH and "The Rain". Yea, took pix in the car of the rain on the roads.... poor Chris drove in this dreary rain all day long. What a trooper! At 16 yrs old to drive his whole family in a nerdy minivan for over 10 hrs....wow! He is such a great kid! Finally, another beautiful shot of the sun out over the Grand Tetons. It was like a final farewell to us as we left the Natl' parks that day. What a gorgeous sight it was! We will totally be going through the Teton area a lot more in the future. Even in the rain and clouds it was beautiful!

OK over and out for today!
