Yellowstone

For my 30th birthday, I always wanted to take a trip. You know, to some place lively and fun - like Las Vegas, San Diego, Seattle, NYC, San Francisco. I never imagined it would end up being Yellowstone! But I'm so happy it did. Matt's gift to me was a snowmobile tour around our nation's first national park. It's lively in a whole different way. We saw bison, elk, all sorts of birds, and a pack of WOLVES! Our guide does 5 tours a week and says that was only the second time he's seen wolves this year! I had my telephoto lens on, but we still weren't able to get that close. That's probably a good thing. OK, enough talking...our friends on the snowmobile tour have been waiting long enough to see some of these pictures! P.S. I will not be taking up wildlife photography.






Ravens are known for being thieves. They wait for people to leave their snowmobiles unattended, then when the coast is clear - they swoop down to steal food, sunglasses, keys and anything else they can get their claws on. It's hysterical!


Matt thought this was funny.




I was bundled up from head to toe. I had flashbacks to the kid on 'A Christmas Story.'

The coolest tour group ever.

We covered nearly 100 miles and were ready for a nap!


Couldn't leave without seeing Old Faithful.
