We ventured way north for day 3 of our time in Yellowstone. Mammoth Springs was our goal and after an early start and a few stops along the way to look at bears we made it into Mammoth. None of the bears were close and many friendly people let us look in their high powered […]
MoreSo I’ll be totally honest. I really have no idea what I’m doing. Not sure if anyone else is in this boat does as well. I’m not even sure it’s a boat that is going to float or not yet… And if you had told me a year ago that I was going to be […]
MoreHow is everyone doing? We had a mix of really rainy weather and even cool weather that quickly changed into 90+ degree weather. My flowers are going nuts and enjoying the weather. My tomatoes are struggling just a bit. They are putting on fruit and the main stalk seems to look fine, but their leaves […]

Good thing we have over a month before we are actually starting. I like to be prepared. And ready. And maybe I’m a bit crazy. Oh […]
MoreGeysers, geysers, and more geysers. This was our geyser day in case you couldn’t tell. (WARNING A TON OF PHOTOS AHEAD, but I’ve narrowed it down from the 160 i took that day….) We loaded the boys up early from the cabin and started driving to Old Faithful. We made good time and pulled into […]
MoreHas it really already been 8 packages? Wow. I’m getting quite good at stuffing things in a zip lock baggie. Sometimes I worry if I am sending the right things or if he likes them or if I am running out of ideas to send. However I got Edric’s 14 month photos last week and […]
