Yellowstone

This place is Huge! We ended up staying at a campground on Hebgen Lake in West Yellowstone Montana. We traveled in & out of Wyoming several times while exploring the National Parks; Yellowstone & Grand Teton. These parks are the size of a small state, and just when you think that you just witnessed the most beautiful landscape scene in your life, you round another corner or reach the peak of another mountain. I've never said the word "Wow" so many times in two days.

We were not prepared for the temperatures that we experienced here. When we arrived the temperature was 42 deg. and there was a sustained 20 mph wind coming off of the glacial runoff filled lake. Burr.

On the first night in town we ate at Wild West Pizzeria & Saloon. I don't say this lightly, it was the best pizza I've ever had. The next morning we got up and entered YNP via the West entrance.

Like I said, YNP is just one spectacular view after another.

And while at the continental divide there was no way that these Floridians could resist playing in the snow. Just for a bit until we could no longer feel our hands and toes.

Of course we visited Old Faithful

The highlight of the day was when Josh and I (Mike) climbed down a very steep bank about 200 ft. to sit out on a ledge and get this shot. It was an incredible vantage point.

The two full days we spent in Yellowstone National Park were unforgettable. We look forward to coming back to see more. Someday
