A few months ago Bruce was asked to attend a Training class in West Yellowstone. Spouses where invited and I was excited to go; though we both wondered, "Why not Hawaii or Florida or somewhere at least warm with Ocean Water". The beach sounded so relaxing, Yellowstone sounded like work. How wrong I was! I have spent the last five days thoroughly enjoying the whole experience of Yellowstone. It is peaceful, majestic, beautiful, powerful, diverse, raw, wild and breathtaking. Words fail to do it justice. I have not only seen the beauty of this place, I have felt it as well. The following are a few of my favorite pictures.
