On our second day in Yellowstone we covered the southern portion of the park-ie, fewer animal sightings and way more geysers and hot pots.
Old Faithful
Kind of anti-climatic, but hey, now we can say we’ve seen it.
Grand Prismatic Spring
Blue smoke!
This one was kind of a mystery to me. They have gone to great lengths to build and maintain a walkway up to this pool, but unless you are 10 feet tall, you can’t really see how cool this is. It takes a helicopter ride or the internet to give you the real view:

From West Thumb we continued south out of the park to see the Tetons and Jackson Hole.
I LOVE the Tetons!
No trip to Rexburg is complete without a trip to my favorite frozen yogurt on the planet-Millhollow!
It has not changed one single bit in (almost) 25 years.
On our way home, just outside of Idaho Falls and luckily near civilization we got a nice flat tire. Drove over a screw that popped the tire in two places.
While we waited on the side of the road for our Uber, this was our beautiful view.
It was a gorgeous day and all in all the flat took only an hour and a half to get fixed.
Our last stop on the trip was a river in the middle of nowhere so Reagan could look for rocks-he’s really into geology.
The trip was a great success. The only thing missing was a Moose sighting.
Guess we’ll have to go back!
When Reagan got home, he started his first job at Papa Murphy’s!



















I have a picture of Dad standing at that same place in the Tetons that has Rock and Reagan and some sign about drones. Only he had a sign telling us that the park was closed because of the shut down.
