Yellowstone for the day... fantastic!
I've decided to mainly use photos to tell you about our incredible day in Yellowstone, the world's first national park (1872). We entered from the east. Drove for hours completing the loop around the park and exited the east gate and returned home to our camp in Cody, WY.
Waterfalls, the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, Old Faithful Geyser, the Continental Divide, and amazingly weird geological features...With half of the earth's geothermal features, Yellowstone holds the planet's most diverse and intact collection of geysers, hot springs, mudpots, and fumaroles. Its more than 300 geysers make up two thirds of all those found on earth. Combine this with more than 10,000 thermal features comprised of brilliantly colored hot springs, bubbling mudpots, and steaming fumaroles, and you have a place like no other.
Our National Park adventures continue to delight me and I'm pretty certain Kegan is impressed. Theodore Roosevelt summed it up best, "The establishment of the National Park Service is justified by considerations of good administration, of the value of natural beauty as a National asset, and of the effectiveness of outdoor life and recreation in the production of good citizenship." We are so being good citizenship!
