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. We are staying in a huge wilderness space, everyone has to eat, and not everyone is a vegetarian. Except for a few of the marmots, John took pictures holding the camera instead…

Yellowstone National Park Day 30
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 Day 28
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…

Yellowstone National Park, WY, June 2025 John needed to make calls and deal with problems related to selling his property in Oklahoma, so we could not make it out at a reasonable hour.

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…

Yellowstone National Park Day 24
Yellowstone National Park, WY. June 2025 The weather forecast claimed cloudy and rainy, so we decided on less interesting sights. Today, we planned to check off the Old Faithful task.
