some more photos...

A bit o' craziness has kept me from getting on line and posting... As well as the fact that dad took upwards of 400 photos- so its been a hard to pick and choose which ones to post... But here are a few more for you to drool over. Moose drool. 

The Missions (I believe) just out of Missoula. 
Campsite #1 at the foot of the Beartooths. (Check out mom and dads new fangled tent!)
A beautiful hike up in the beartooths... Lots of snow to get around... 
The wildflowers were just brilliant... everywhere you looked..
Like I said, lots of snow to try and get around... And this was mid-July mind you...
mountains 
mountains everywhere.... Than will have to give you the proper names... I've lost track. 
Traffic jam in Yellowstone... see if you can't figure out the cause... It only took this old bloke about an hour to saunter off the road into the bushes. Ah, america.  
Some stunning, sultry, sulfuric springs... 
The Grand Tetons in all their glory. 
An terrific storm left us with a most amazing rainbow
Jenny Lake
swimming in what I believe was freshly melted snow. It was more of a dip than a swim. REFRESHING.

camp site number.... well I forget but just outside of the tetons...
The earlymorning sunshine... 
And on to Jackson Hole where we met up with Ali-diko for breakfast. How crazy is it to drive into some random little town in the middle of no-where out west and have breakfast with a long lost friend from growing up? SO GREAT.
meeting the dogs...
Beatuiful big open spaces...
And our last campsite in the Tobacco Roots... So gorgeous. 
Our view...
Nasan, whipping up a cake on the camp fire... What can I say, we camped in style. 
s'mores anyone?
freshly hatched pine cone for mom
Oh wait, back to the beartooths for a minute...
Tim and Seth
Lindsay and Corin
And a family photo to top it off. 

Such a good time! 
Where are we going next summer??

*99% of the photos are credited to PWR... Thanks dad.

Yay, thanks for sharing! How beautiful! Looks like it was a refreshing trip in a lot of ways. How long were you actually there? Glad you connected with Arlene too!
