Yellowstone

We arrived Monday afternoon.

I don't have the words to describe this beauty.  Everywhere you look is another  vista:  mountains with and without snow, lake, river, waterfall, tall pine trees, and hillsides recovering from wildfires.  The various shades of green and blue and white along the mountain, water, hill, and sky.

And there is wildlife.  We were really that close to the bison (from the inside of our truck) which have been all along the side of the road.  We have also seen elk, male and female, swans, and bear tracks.  Patrick thinks he saw a mountain goat.  And we've only been here one afternoon!

The weather has been perfect so far.  Sunny and warm but not hot.  Cold at night but we have electricity (and therefore heat) at our campsite.

What we don't have is cell service, so while this is being written Tuesday morning, we're not sure when it will get posted.

There is also a glitch with the phone on which these posts are written.  Trying to add more than one picture per post makes the app shut down.  So there will be multiple posts just with a picture.
