Back from Yellowstone and the Tetons, a true "bucket list" trip, more than we could have ever imagined. I would love to post every picture, but I'll try to stick to the real highlights, and there were many.

Jackson Airport is inside the Tetons, north of Jackson, To step out of the plane and see THIS
is to give you s taste of the wonders you are about to see.

You drive north on Rt. 89, and to your left, for miles, is the overwhelming grandeur of the
Tetons. You drive north until you go into Yellowstone Park

Our routine was the same through out the trip. I would be up at 5 or 6, and drive to see what I could see.
I would stay out until 9 or 10, and come back for breakfast with Susan. A photographer's light always waited for me.

Yellowstone is a caldera of a erupted volcano, that is also about so many thousand years overdue
to erupt again! The magma chamber underground evidently would fill the Grand Canyon
15 times.
