Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone, Wyoming

After the Mt. Hood hangout, Moriah and I took off from Portland to stay at her place in Yellowstone NP for a few days. 

I remember this place partly because it was where I wrote my thesis and completed my graduate program, so that felt good. But without a doubt, Yellowstone is one of those unique places that you can't forget and can't wait to get back to once you leave.

Here, Moriah is doing her research as she plans a cram-in-as-much-as-possible trip. And she crushed it. This short Yellowstone visit was AWESOME.

We started out the morning with a stop into Artists' Paintpots.

En route to my next stop (Buena Vista, CO!) I dropped in to Fort Collins, CO to visit Laurel's family.
