Yellowstone National Park Day 20
Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 One of the office workers told Kate that there were goslings at Madison, so Kate needed to go see the goslings.

Yellowstone National Park Day 18

Yellowstone National Park Day 13: Part 2
Yellowstone National Park, WY, May 2025 I setup my Canon XSI a long time ago. That one had a manual. The used Canon T7I that I just bought does not. It took a while to figure it out because no manual and no internet. Well, not internet at Barnes Hole, where we were testing it.…
