more pics

just a few more for your viewing pleasure...


We made it to Yellowstone! Adam couldn't wait to see Yogi, but alas! the bear populations (both black and grizzly) had already entered hibernation, so we didn't see Yogi or any of his relatives this trip...:-( We did see tons of elk and were stopped for about an hour at the park's exit by a herd of bison that wouldn't let us pass!


The magpies were intent on tormenting poor Kiks...park regulations won't let you take your dog out on most trails for fear of wildlife encounters (Kika would definitely be a "prey" item), so we had to keep her in the car for most of the visit.


Adam in the mist...here, we were visiting one of the many thermal pools that were fantastically active during our visit. You have to be VERY careful around them, though. Loads of people have fallen in only to have their skin melt off them in a matter of seconds, and then die quickly thereafter.


Good Ole Faithful...we got to see her erupt twice. We have a great video from our first visit.
