A Window into Heaven






Yellowstone was INCREDIBLE! It rained on us mostly but it didn't stop us from taking advantage of every single minute we had there. I could write a chapter on our week there, but that will have to come later. For now let me just say that if you ever want to see some spectacular wildlife viewing, then Yellowstone is the place to visit. We saw 8 grizzly's, 2 black bears, a dozen coyotes, 4 wolves, hundreds of buffalo, antelope, moose, elk, mule deer, and those are just the large mammels. We saw many small critters, birds and fish as well. I took over 200 photos and I'm waiting for alot of it to be developed still. The grand finale was on the last day we watched a grizzly fend off 3 wolves from a bison carcass he was on. It was so special to witness and a good reminder as to what the bigger picture is all about. Here are some pics for now with more to follow.

Yellowstone is a magical place isn't it? I spent a week there for three years... each summer... it was spectacular, and I tell everyone I know that if they haven't gone, they need to! You made me miss it! I've never seen the things you did, as we stuck to the main populated areas, but it's still an amazing place to visit. can't wait to see the rest of your pictures!!!
