9 Days and 3516 Miles and 1477 Photographs!

Haven't seen Yellowstone since 1988...it's still amazing. Lower Falls from Artist's Point.

Firehole River Rapids, shortly after the West Entrance.

Steaming pots.

Mud pot bubbles bursting.
And then it exploded. The sounds at these mud pots were fun, too.

Yellowstone is so cool! I guess I was only 6 when I went last. I do remember how it smelled, ha ha. We'll have to go visit sometime! :)
