We had been talking about going to the Tetons and Yellowstone for years and finally decided to go in the fall of 2007. We both came home with thousands of images. This is only a selection. Click on each thumbnail to see a larger version.
Just for fun, I took a bunch of images out of the window of the car as we drive from Ohio to Wyoming. |
