Thursday, July 30

Hi everybody, sorry it's been so long since I've updated the Blog. When last I wrote, we were still in Yellowstone and I have a couple of pictures to put up from that area, before we moved on. We finally left on Saturday, the 18th and it wasn't until we were driving out the east gate, just a few miles down the road that we FINALLY found a mama moose and her baby. Needless to say, we pulled over and took a few pictures, it was so cool!

The east side of the park was really beautiful and we were sorry we hadn't checked it out before finally leaving the park. Oh well, there is always next time...we also didn't realize how steep the descent would be after leaving the pass at over 8,000 ft. We went down about halfway, before turning into an overlook and I decided we should unhook, so it would be better for the bus to go the rest of the way. We ended up driving like that the rest of the way to Cody, and since I ended up with the zoom lens on the camera, I'm trying to drive and take pictures along the way. I just basically aimed the camera at what I wanted to do, (without looking into the viewfinder) and snapped away. I actually managed to take some pretty good pictures, as you will see...
