Most of July

I've found that the more we do and the more time that I let pass between blog posts, the more overbearing the task of writing a new post gets. As a result, every time I update after letting a month pass, I resolve to update more frequently... And here we are again three weeks later. Oh well =)

Some highlights this month: 
Hiked the Terrace Mountain Loop
Visited West Yellowstone, Mt
Went Moose Hunting (for photos only) in the Lamar Valley
Visited Cooke City, Mt
Hiked the Fairy Falls trail 
Watched the sunrise from the Boiling River (twice!)
Hiked the Beaver Ponds Trail (and got a killer sunburn)
Finished up Softball for the summer
Wildflower Hunting with Monica 
Summerfest in Livingston

Some things we saw:
The Hoodoos
Old Faithful Erupt (again)
Semi-Aerial View of the Grand Prismatic
Fairy Falls
Two wolves with a carcass
A Black Bear
A Grizzly Bear (who crossed the road right in front of us!)
A female Moose
Two Bald Eagles
Some Elk and Antelope
Bison and their babies
Big Horn Sheep and Babies
Many Many Wild Flowers
The Dark Knight Rises and Moonrise Kingdom ;)
Elk hanging out in someone's yard
Monica and Sean on Terrace Mtn Loop
Black Bear being sneaky in some sage brush

I hope you have an awesome week (or month if that's how long it takes me to update) and are inspired by the simple things.

Peace and Love
