Seems so long ago, but our memories of our 2014 trip across country are still clear in our thoughts.
During our trip across country we were fortunate enough to stop for a couple of days in Yellowstone National Park. What an adventure it was for Sher and me as this was the first trip for both of us. We stayed at the only campground with hookups for RV’s. The campground was very nice, and we were warned to look out a mama bear with a couple of her cubs.

This bull bison strolled right by us on the road.
Our adventure began before we got to the campground. As we were driving on a road overlooking the Yellowstone Lake we saw traffic stopped. Thinking it might be an accident as the road was narrow with a guardrail on one side and a sheer rock cliff on the other. Well, then we saw the huge bison calmly walking down the road in the middle of the oncoming lane.

Our journey within the park took us to Hayden Valley, where we saw other bison. Here we also saw the Dragon’s Mouth and the Mud Volcano. The scenery was magnificent.

Our second day took us to West Thumb of the Yellowstone Lake. There were the famous wood boardwalks leading around the geothermal pools and geysers. Since I got my undergraduate degree in geology Sher had to put up with my going ape over the geologist’s dream that is Yellowstone. We had planned on visiting Yellowstone and the western US, but COVID came along and messed that up.
That was a fun adventure. Bull Bison do what they please.

Very beautiful photos, guys! I have never been there but it looks so amazing. What scares me about the park is the fire below it. I hope you get the chance to visit again. 👍🏻😎

I went to Yellowstone with my parents when I was about 10. Might have been 1959 or 1960.That was the year of the Yellowstone earth quake. I happened in the middle of the night! I will never forget it. But I also remember the geysers especially Old Faithfull.

The entire state of Wyoming is a geologist’s dreamscape! Paleontologists, too, look to Wyoming for a good time.
