Yellowstone National Park, June 2025 John and Kate spent the morning and early afternoon sleeping in and getting things done around the trailer.

Yellowstone National Park Day 32
Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 Kate had a problem with spotting scope envy. John had a problem with lens envy, so he had to buy a bigger camera lens. He compromised and got a mid-level long lens instead of the $12,999 600mm f/4 prime lens or the $19,999 1200mm f/8 prime lens from Canon.…

Yellowstone National Park Day 31: NSFK
Yellowstone National Park, WY, Jun 2025 Just a warning, this post may be classified as Not Safe For Kids (NSFK) and squeamish people.

Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 We found out that the Natural Bridge Trail was open. They close it in the spring because Bridge Creek has spawning trout that attract bears.

Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 Today was a recovery and catch up day. We got the blog up to date. We relaxed. We went owl hunting. The only thing I can say about our owl hunting is that owls are in no fear of becoming endangered due to our efforts. There were owls reported…

So, visiting the National Fish Hatchery in Jackson, WY would result in both learning about the fish hatchery and obtaining cancel stamps 🙂 From the Grand Teton National Park Day 25 – GlampingWithCats.com blog, this facility was working to preserve and maintain two fish.…

Yellowstone National Park Day 27
Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 Today, we planned to sit somewhere and watch. We had talked about this a few times, but we had not done it.

Grand Teton National Park Day 25
Grand Teton National Park, WY, June 2025 Kate wanted MORE cancel stamps, so she plotted a convoluted route from Fishing Bridge to Jackson Hole, WY that hit every cancel stamp (that was open) within 100 miles. Maybe it was only 20 miles. We drove down John D. Rockefeller, Jr Memorial Parkway to get from Yellowstone…
