Sunday at Yellowstone...

Sunday, July, 9th, 2023.
YELLOWSTONE NP! A long awaited goal, even from pre-1982 in South Africa, a goal I truly thought would never materialise, but here we are, LOOP I, Big Thumb, next to the caldera lake of YELLOWSTONE LAKE.
Connie drove all the way from Wood River, WY. through CODY and into Yellowstone, so I could see the view !
Amazed at the size of the lake, being far inland and at 7,801 ft. (campsite elevation) fed from mountain creeks and rivers.
Spring / Summer flowers are everywhere. Connie has created some very good images of wildflowers. - not here of course but in previous camps.
Seldom, MOST SELDOM, do I agree or praise Republicans of this day and age. BUT, certainly, Theodore Roosevelt, who oversaw the creation of the planets very first National Park, needs a 'Thank You, Mr. President! ' from everyone who enters here.
Needless to say, today's supporters of nefarious actions to overturn the Constitution - are not from the same arm of the Republican Party as Mr. Roosevelt - sigh.
In case you missed it: "Thank You, Mr. Roosevelt! - for Yellowstone, and for conserving so much more".Leia mais
