Vacation Post #11....Day in Yellowstone

June 29th was a better day healthwise for me. I was feeling much better and the pain was bearable. We headed north into Yellowstone for the day hoping to see lots of wildlife.

Here's a picture of some wildlife captured at the tent cabins! Savannah's not too sure of Madison's silliness!
After waiting for Old Faithful and then seeing Old Faithful we found a nice picnic area to have lunch at. Boys will be boys....instead of sticks they enjoyed swinging pine branches at one another.

After our lunch we did more sightseeing in Yellowstone. A little group picture captured by some of the sulfur smelling hot spots. Can you tell it was a bit windy?

Our quest for wildlife was somewhat disappointing....we didn't see any large herds of buffalo that we saw 5 years earlier. But we were able to spot a few. I had to zoom in quite a bit to capture this photo....he wasn't as close as he appears to be.

The kiddos posing on the rocks for a group shot.

Then I joined them....we were looking at the Upper Falls from this viewpoint.

And finally a family shot....notice the Falls in the background...beautiful.

Another lone buffalo grazing in the field.

As we re-entered Grand Teton Park we stopped at the famous signs and got a picture.

We arrived back at camp a little late and Sally and Russ were waiting for us. That night we were able to capture some group pictures. Russ and Sally with all the grandkids.

Our camera captured a short video of Old Faithful.
