We saw this mule deer shortly after leaving our motel. Pretty morning scenery Those first pictures all […]
No one can fathom his greatness! Psalm 145:3 New English Translation (NET Bible)
Tuesday July 29 I enjoyed seeing the flower-covered hillsides as we traveled northwest to Mount Washburn. We will remember Chittenden Road to Mount Washburn because… …it was a very bumpy dirt road. The beauty was worth every bump in the road. By the time we reached Tower-Roosevelt, we had traveled every main road in Yellowstone, so we turned […]

Tuesday Afternoon, July 29 We arrived at Canyon Falls about 1 PM. We hadn’t eaten since having coffee and sharing a muffin while waiting for a display from Old Faithful ~ about 7:30 AM ~ so we looked for a place for lunch. We shared a BLT and fries. We spent the next two hours exploring the […]

Tuesday, July 29 We enjoyed the scenery after leaving Old Faithful and headed north to Madison. We headed west after getting to Madison to do the West Entrance drive. I asked Cerwin to stop so I could get a photo of this reflection. As I was taking the picture, I noticed that the reflection was […]
They are firm like mountains, deep like the sea, and all people and animals are under your care. Psalm 36:6 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
Tuesday, July 29 We left the cabin early (about 6:45 AM) on Tuesday morning to get to Old Faithful before the crowds and saw this coyote a few minutes later. It was right next to our car (on Cerwin’s side), we were moving in opposite directions, and it was still a bit dark ~ my list of excuses for […]
and even the clouds in the sky can depend on you. Psalm 36:5 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
Monday, July 28 As we approached Fountain Paint Pot area, we didn’t know what we were in for. The parking lot was full of cars and buses, and we almost decided to leave ~ but then we saw an open spot and decided to park and see what it was all about. It turned out to be a […]
Monday, July 28 Our first entrance into Yellowstone was through the Northeast Entrance – about 10:00 AM on Monday. We were soon rewarded with our first animal sighting when we saw herds of bison in Lamar Valley. This became an almost common experience in certain areas – bison on the road – as we spent several days in […]

Monday, July 28 (Posted Wednesday evening in Jackson, Wyoming. It’s good to be back online after three days without Internet, cell phone, and TV – but we had a FABULOUS time in Yellowstone. Thankfully we could call our children from our motel room phone at no charge.) We left Cody early Monday morning so we would have […]
Sunday, July 27 We enjoyed a relaxing morning in our motel room. We don’t know anyone in this area and were not familiar with any of the churches, so listened to our own church service from back home. We could do that at 8 AM due to the two-hour time change. We weren’t quite ready for […]
Psalm 23:2 The Voice (VOICE)
Saturday, July 26 We began our evening at 5:30 at The Cody Cattle Company. They serve a delicious chuckwagon meal. My plateful after going through the line ~ and I chose to not take the tossed salad or beef. 6:30 PM: The music is about to begin. The hour of lively cowboy and bluegrass music was […]

Saturday ~ Morning and Afternoon ~ July 26 We began our day by purchasing a combination ticket for a 9 AM trolley tour of Cody and a two-day pass for Buffalo Bill Center of the West. We had time to relax before the tour, so went inside the dining room to order orange juice (me) and coffee […]
Psalm 138: The Message (MSG)
Friday, July 25 This was the view outside our motel window this morning. With sunrise just a bit closer. Before long the hills were covered with sunshine.

Thursday, July 24 We were up early today ~ to be at Dave Hansen White Water by 6:45. No, we were not going white water rafting!

Tuesday, July 22 I am keeping this online “diary” of our trip – for my benefit and memories. Hope you enjoy it too. 🙂 We flew American because we had enough air miles to make it a free trip. Our check-in went smoothly at Harrisburg. Just after I went through security, and was waiting on […]
