It's Been a While









It's been a while since I have blogged, and since I have enjoyed nature this much. Here are some nature pictures from our trip to Yellowstone, Day One. We went on trails around hot mineral springs, looked at a gorgeous waterfall, saw herds of buffalo, and watched some elk sunning themselves. This was followed by milkshakes and elk burgers at a local hamburger joint. After watching the beautiful creatures, it really made me sad to try elk. But not enough to not try it. The buffalo were probably my favorite part of the day. They were literally inches from our car, walking down the middle of the road in large herds. They were making growling noises and some of them were running, almost acting as if they were going to charge at the cars. Something was making them mad. I was just grateful I wasn't the guy on the motorcycle behind us.
Our chalet is beautiful. It sits right on the snake river and the Yellowstone mountain range. I think the weather is one of the best parts about Montana and Wyoming, at least in late summer. 40's at night and 70's during the day. Beats Florida's weather right now, any day of the week!!! More pictures to come. And I apologize to those who actually do read my blog for the lack of pictures lately. Just been busy I suppose. You know, moving once again (don't ask) and getting ready for this baby No. 2. Blogging was last on my list for a while, but we're back...again.
