Part 3......Yellowstone

From Cody we headed to Yellowstone! We met up with Granny, Grampy, Trey and Katchie(who had just had jaw surgery and was a real trooper!) and had a fun filled 2 days! We took the loop around Yellowstone and saw all kinds of fascinating wildlife.......lots of bison, both big and small, elk, deer, a wolf, pelicans, and a bald eagle. There were lots of young animals and it was fun to see them with their mothers. We even saw what looked to be a brand new baby elk who couldn't even walk yet. We got some really fun pictures. We saw a couple of moose heading into Wyoming, but we didn't manage to see any bears. We got to see Old Faithful go off and various other geysers too! There were some beautiful waterfalls and I love the picture I captured below of a gorgeous Yellowstone sunset. It truly is a magical place. It had been many, many years since I had been to Yellowstone, and Val as well, and we had never been together. This was a fun first for our little family, and the kids loved looking for all of the different animals and walking around to look at all the geysers and hotsprings! It was definitely a trip we will always remember!
