Home Sweet Home!

We have had some wonderful experiences on our trip, and decided to camp this week at the KOA in W. Yellowstone, MT....just outside the park. Our tent (given to us by Jeremy a long time ago), has been great and we have used it for more years than I can remember......BUT, the zipper decided to quit working on us in the middle of the night the first of the week. The door flap just collapsed and there was no fixing it--we tried. Needless to say, we didn't sleep well the rest of the night. The temp was in the 30's and bears roam through the campground at night!

Well, the next day we went tent shopping and found the one in the picture. It is great! It's 10' x14' and 7' high. We feel like we're living in a mansion!
The night after we got this tent set up a bear comes roaming through the campground. He bumped our car and set off the alarm, and again last night he bumped our car, not once but twice setting off the alarm both times!
Very thankful for a tent door that closes.

So, what will we do with this tent when we get back home? We have a camper we really enjoy, so kids....you want a tent big enough for 9 people, we have the tent for you to use!

Another great day at Yellowstone NP

Today, July 6th, we visited ALL the geysers in Yellowstone. I couldn't tell you how many there are-just a lot! It was just incredible! Some were beautiful shades of blue, and some were bubbling hot mud....and of course, the grand finale was Old Faithful, which was a pretty amazing sight.

It's unusual for us to see wild animals...such as buffalo, grazing right near the road. Nothing seems to bother them.

Tomorrow we will explore another part of the park. What a beautiful country our God has created.....we're having a wonderful time.

I've posted some of the pictures we took today of different geysers.

This geyser was pretty quiet, but the colors were beautiful.




Oops! My finger tapped the wrong picture ( obviously not Yellowstone)!
And being new at doing this, I haven't figured out how to remove just one picture.




This geyser is named Young Hopeful Geyser!




And, of course, this is Old Faithful Geyser.
