Super Angie....home, home on the range

We went to Yellowstone again this weekend. We stayed at a delightful cabin in West Yellowstone and just had a great time. 

We took a few hikes to see geysers--the boys REALLY love Geysers. Tanith mostly enjoyed being in the baby backpack. The weather was perfect--sunny, 70s with a slight breeze. Perfect!

We had a picnic by the river. The kids played in the "taller then Tanith" high grasses. We saw lots of Elk including a beautiful bull. 

We also went to the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center, where Dallin to help the animal keepers by feeding the bears! It was awesome. The wolfs howled for us, the bears dug for food and the kids just had a blast. 

We really enjoyed walking around West Yellowstone. The candy shop there was extra yummy! And we ate a nice big lunch at Canyon Street Grill-- a 1950s style diner. So cute.

There was an Old Car show in town---we loved seeing all the classics drive around town.

We also attended the Mountain Man Rendezvous. We saw tons of furs, and met some mountain man and learned more about their life. We bought a blanket (which we used for our picnic), some candy and a fire starter kit in a leather bag. So cool and fun.

My camera died, so only Rick took photos of our great weekend...I'll post some as soon as I get them from him. :)

This reminds me of the trip you and I took to yellowstone in '93 except we never did find a place to stay. Too bad we didn't know about the log cabins..
