Niki and Adam flew in from Chicago last Wednesday, and day 1 found us in the middle of the bison rut in the Hayden Valley,
and a stop a Mud Volcano.
Lunch at the Lake Hotel Dining Room (mixed game sliders for me and Adam, yum),
where Niki discovered her new favorite beer.
Then we hit the Storm Point Trail.
We stopped at the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone for a few photo op's at Artist Point.
When we pulled back into Mammoth that night the elk were relaxing in front of the chapel--I think this one's giving Niki the eye...
As we left for dinner we ran into this small cinnamon bear across the street from our house.
And then we chowed down at the Raven Grill.
It's so awesome to open your blog and see beautiful vistas (& tasty treats) reminding me how much wide open space there is outside of the concrete streets. miss you guys!
