Driving from the midwest back home to Idaho.

We left the ranch very early in the morning to get home in one day.  We were lucky to see...

the Buffalo Gap National Grassland, the Black Hills National Forest, Mount Rushmore National Monument...


The self timer option from my camera worked pretty well at 6:45 am!  We were the only ones there and the gates weren't even charging admission.  I hate to say it, but the early bird really does get the worm!



the Bighorn National Forest complete with a mother and baby moose


an incredible 15 minute hailstorm as we entered Yellowstone National Park





Grand Teton National Park



Jackson Hole, Wyoming


and the Caribou National Forest! 

We saw 2 moose, countless deer, elk, buffalo and antelope, and a few swans (among many other birds). It was quite a day, and we made it home at 2 am...just in time for Kurtis to get to bed and wake up early for work the next day.
