We made a spontaneous trip to Yellowstone last weekend.
I took a ton of pictures, so I'm doing this in two parts. I am really glad we got to go. I haven't been for a few years, and there was a lot of new things we saw and a lot that I didn't remember seeing before. It was an awesome day! We are so lucky to live so close-it's only an hour and a half drive.
