Kim asked for our five best pictures. I hope he meant the best five of each day. Sorry for the overload, but it was just too beautiful here! As has been said before, the pictures do not do justice to the actual scenery or wildlife. Hope you enjoy.

1) Photo queens self portrait. Guess who?
2) Unknown duck.
3) Marmot
4) Mudpot
5) Chocolate Pot
6) Resting Elk
7) Boiling pot in Old Faithful geyser area
8) Another boiling pot in Old Faithful geyser area
9) Blue spring in Old Faithful area
10) Riverside nest. Eagle or Osprey?
11) Critter Crossing
12) Elk at Mammoth Springs area

Lots of good images!  It was tough to find something someone else hadn't photographed.  Here's one of the Golden Gate (Golden Gate Canyon)  Sorry for the large size.  Will resize next time.

Our pics from yesterdays trip to the Grand canyon of the Yellowstone and a shot from it snowing in the Grizzly RV Park this morning.  A special treat for those of us who rarely get to see snow fall.

At Tower Junction we split:
L & M hit three bear jams This pic is the first.
Mammoth Hot Springs from a distance.
Ft. Yellowstone from the same place.

Second bear jam I got only a momentary video. This is at the third one.

On Tuesday we went to Mammoth and walked down the old army buildings and saw this bison laying between two of the buildings sunning itself. It was laying within a few feet of some children's toys  from the residents of that building. We drove around to the other side of the buildings and got a picture of the front and boy did that bison have a contented look.

I used to drive that pass every day delivering ice cream to Tower Falls.  An enjoyable drive!  But then we drove from Livingston and around the park and then home everyday an most was not that good!
 
Here's a few of our trip to Fishing Bridge and Yellowstone Falls on Wednesday.

We are the lucky ones.  We got a bonus few days at Grizzly.  Today Kim took Dee and I to the Grand Tetons.  What a magnificent trip.  Beauty beyond imagination.  A few pics from  our trip.  We also saw a black bear and a wolf!  Both were gone so fast no one got a picture.
