Yellowstone

We spent last weekend in Island Park and Yellowstone with my parents. We went to Yellowstone 10 years ago, and have tried many times to take the kids back there, but until now we haven't been able to work it out. It is such a beautiful place. The weather was beautiful the two days that we were in Yellowstone, and it snowed the other two days we were there.
Here are a few (quite a few) of my favorite pics.

This one was ruined by a car that pulled in just as I got ready to snap the photo.

This buffalo along with 2 others were only about 30 feet from us!
Riverside Geyser.
Brian has always wanted to see this one erupt and has never been able to until this time.

Morning Glory Pool



Firehole Falls

The kids walking through the steam.
Crater Geyser
These buffalo were only an arms reach out the window of the car.
They were in a large herd.

Beautiful pictures! I have always wanted to go to Yellowstone with the family. We talk about breaking up the trip by going to my Mom in Midvale for a few days then heading out... it never seems to happen. It would be fun to come visit your family some time when we do come up... I think our children would really hit it off!
