Grand Teton and Yellowstone Weekend Adventure





Here are some more pictures from our trip to Yellowstone. There is something to be said for those who adventure out with 4 dogs in tow. We are either really patient or completely nuts. HAHA, actually for as long as we spent in the car driving around and sight seeing they were all very good. It does help that they had the entire back of the RX with blankets and foam padding to ride on. Nothing beats riding in style. I do have to say, we have learning a few things from this trip. One being, you can only trust a dog for so long not to follow his nose. We happened to buy some really great buffalo jerky early in the day on Saturday. Well we made a stop at about 3pm to take some pictures, left the dogs in the car for less than 7 minutes. We come back to No JERKY and Mata trying his hardest to get into the chocolate covered grahm crackers. I guess there is a reason we call him "the nose".

Grand Teton and Yellowstone Weekend Adventure




So this weekend we decided to drive and spend some time in The Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. What a great weekend, not only was it a FREE weekend to visit, but it also turned out to be a lot of fun. We took off late Friday Night, and arrived in camp in Grand Tetons National Park around 2am. At about 8am we started out and ventured through both parks. What a fun day. We saw everything, Geysers and hot springs and a petrified tree. We also saw Bison, Elk, and a GRIZZLY Bear! The weather was great for most of the trip, we did get some rain late Saturday night, but by that point we had seen almost everything we wanted to see. If you have never been to these two great national treasures, you should get out there and see them.
