Sunday we both tried to totally exhaust ourselves—Michael working on his “thumb” project and me in the flower beds pulling weeds. Today we decided to take a drive—that way we wouldn’t be caught working! 
Traffic outside Yellowstone was light—and lighter than usual inside the Park—it is early in the season but there were several buffalo and bear jams as we traveled along. We shared the driving and Emmi kept an eye out for critters—we saw two bear, loads of buffalo, antelope, sheep and elk.
Michael took these bear photos:
We stopped in Silver Gate for Wilcoxson’s ice cream milkshakes before heading into the Park—YUM!
We are so fortunate to call Yellowstone Park our backyard!

I think you have the best backyard in the USA!
ReplyDeleteSeems fitting the bird built its nest above the Department of the Interior. ;)
Nothing beats a roadtrip through beautiful country. As Judy said. You live in a marvelous part of the world. Now if you just had a season to grow tomatoes.:-)
ReplyDeleteWow! Janna and Michael you two live the life congratulations on enjoying it and sharing with some of us that just dream and don't get off our _____.s��
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures!
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat pass is on our list before we leave here. Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteTaking a country drive through your awesome state was a nice way to keep from working on home based projects. Awesome photos too.
ReplyDeleteI do believe Beartooth Pass is our all time favorite road. We have done it several times on the motorcyle in June when there is still a lot of snow. Twice the skiers were out. One year when we arrived they had jsut opened the road. Beautiful place! Thanks for the memory. And Yellowstone is my all time favorite park. Wish I had been along for the ride. We are hoping to return to Yellowstone in September:) Glad you got away to relax.
ReplyDeleteI loved riding along on your drive. Beautiful pictures!
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful part of the country. We're on the east coast and it just doesn't measure up.
