Yellowstone

We started in Yellowstone so here are the west thumb pics before our ynp departure… And after our Ringo 2 hour squirt timer. If we look exhausted in these pics, well, we are.

The tetons are just amazing. Dogs can’t go on the trails so we just took a scenic drive and took lots of pictures. I’m just going to put lots of pictures up probably without a lot of description because #pictureWorth1000words

I’ve been told Ringo pics are a good sell.

Then from the campsite we went to see the sunset over Mt. Moran.

Woke up very early and got our Yellowstone on. Good thing! We pulled into the nearly empty Old Faithful parking lot at 8 and by 10am, the parking lot was full and we were hitting the road back to campground to switch sites.

While there, Ringo got to see old faithful from afar. And we took turns going into the inn. We visited the geyser basin too. I have lots of pictures of Yellowstone that just can’t convey how weird Yellowstone is. It’s the sounds, the smells the colors, the deep hot bubbling pools of water /mud that you just can’t capture in a picture.

Inside the old faithful inn. This place never ceases to amaze me. It’s like a tree house.

We got back to the campsite and then after lunch drove to the canyon. It was beautiful. We found a trail to the top of the waterfall that was really cool.

Sorry about my finger…

We had dinner and took Ringo for a walk around the Yellowstone Lake. Pretty sure this lake water made him sick. He’s had diarrhea every 2 hours every night since this photo, but at the time I took it, he was just another cute wet dog and we were dog owners without a care in the world.
