My butterfly…
At the start of the pandemic, four years ago, after realizing it was here to stay for a while , we decided to take a roadtrip to see our daughter Sasha in Missoula Montana. One week later we left ,visited many grreat places and had no plans . Missoula is close to Yellowstone National Park and it seemed fun to go and see the Old Faithfull Geyser. Not knowing much about the park ,we visited without a lot of expectations. Well….. it blew my mind ! The earth was on fire , smoke everywhere from holes in the ground. Azure blue pools bubbling away, mudpools delisciuos as chocolate fondue slowly bubbling in their Cauldrons. and then …the animals, THE ANIMALS !!!!. Bison everywhere , Elk , wolfs , Moose , Chipmunks too much to name and they are everywhere . I spend every waking moment driving and hiking the park and it left a lasting impression. So. this year it became a major stop on our schedule , 8 days and nights , 8 early mornings , just getting better and better. Now its big , so you do a lot of driving to some famous sites and trailheads , so worth it though. I’ll post multiple days as its too much to showcase in one blog. make sure it goes to the top of your bucket list. Enjoy !
