Bison Jams

Bear Jams

Elk Jams

Between spring and summer semester Craig and I decided we needed a break, I wanted to go to arizona with the sun, and Craig wanted to go to Yellowstone with the freezing temps. So guess where we went... thats right Yellowstone and it was the most amazing trip. So I thought I would give you a run down of our 5 day adventure.

I cant believe that I am old enough to rent a car, that is crazy!

11 hours in a car is such a long time.
We rented an amazing car that we did not want to give up, drove through wyoming to jackson hole then through the grand teton national park only to discover that the south entrance to yellowstone was closed until may 8 we arrived may 1. With a little back tracking ( a 5 hour back track) and some scary snow storms we finally arrived to west yellowstone.

this was Jackson Lake in front of the Grand Tetons, but with all the clouds its hard to see that they are grand.

Old Faithful Blew whoo hoo
Even though it was a little chilly we had so much fun looking at the view, seeing the wild life, and checking out the geisers. The best story I have to say was when craig got out of the car to stand twenty feet a way from these 4 bison, the only problem was that he started to move his feet and yell at them when they immediatly jumped up and came toward him. So what does my husband do... jumps straight through the window ( I didnt think he could fit through the window) I about peed my pants watching him run from these huge animals.
You would think that with so many people taking pictures of him every day that he could at least trim the beard.

One morning we woke up to 2 inches of snow on our car, but that didnt slow us down we are from southern utah and we plowed through those snowing roads. All in all we had such a good time together, I am so blessed that we were able to go on such a fun trip together... now it is back to the real world
