Vacation Fun

As a kid we went to Yellowstone National Park almost every summer. My Grandpa Wagner would come to visit and we would pile into the car for a week of camping in the Park. I loved the animals, geysers, mudpots, the camping. Well, at least that is how I remember it now. So when Tyler suggested we drive through Yellowstone on our way to Utah, I was excited. The kids loved it and can't wait to go back.

Hard to see, but there is a brown bear eating a deer carcass in the forrest. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip :)

Waiting for Old Faithful in the rain. I was amazed at how punctual Old Faithful was--I could take a few lessons from him

What is it about the buffalo that I love so much? It's like a creature from early american history has just stepped out of a book for us to enjoy up close and personal.

Notice the rainbow in the background--there was actually a double. It made the rain well worth it.
