As you can see, tremendous areas of the Yellowstone National Park were destroyed by fires some years ago. Yet new life goes on...
A crowd of tourists await the appearance of the Old Faithful.
And voila!
And again!
More forest fire damage in South Yellowstone. As I was taking this picture, a tourist from Missouri asked me if NO2NWO were my calling letters (as a ham radio operator). :-)
This was the only picture of "yours truly" taken on the entire 4,400-mile trip. The photographer was a man from Illinois, who asked me to return the favor for a photo of himself and his wife.
As you can see, the scenery around the Grand Tetons is simply breathtaking. So I will shut up so you can enjoy it without further commentary.
This portal at the Jackson Hole city park was constructed from elk and deer horns. There is a matching one at each of the four park corners. Jackson Hole looks like an old cowboy town now as it probably did 100 years ago.
