HI everyone-

Hope you had a great weekend. Ours was a nice slow paced few days with nothing pressing to accomplish. So we spent most of the time together as a family not doing a whole heck of a lot for a change.

One thing we did was take Cree up to meet my parents half way to their house. We had dinner and then she went home with them for a few days. She was super excited to go. Us on the other hand were happy she was so looking forward to it, as were nanny and bunk, but we were a little sad as she was like "Bye" in that OK its really time you let me go kinda way...lol

I guess we'll have years to deal with that...lol

So, today's post is another in my Aspen Dreams series of images. It was shot this past fall while in Grand Teton National Park.
I was looking through some of the images for this coming weekends Yorkfest Art Festival and I came upon some images of last fall and it really got me in the mood for this years trip.

I can only go so long then I yearn for the crisp bite of the fall morning, the clean air and skies and the sounds of elk bugling echoing through the valleys. I can not wait to get out there!!

Have a great day!

Hi everyone-

After two days of driving we have arrived at our first set of destinations. After leaving Rapid City we drive to Sundance, Wyoming where we had lunch and then headed out to the Jackpot Ranch to see Dallas and his family and deliver some images.

It was great to catch up with the family. While we were there Cree had a chance to check out the horses which see reeeeeaaaally enjoyed. She was less than happy when we had to get back on the road.

After a very pretty ride through the mountains we arrived in Cody, WY where we stayed at the Irma Hotel. This was Buffalo Bill's original hotel. Its a great place to stay if you make it through the area.

Today we are exploring Cody and then moving onto Yellowstone.

Have a great day!

Hi everyone-

Finally got to Rapid City, SD today. It was a long day of driving. But we have some fun stuff planned for the next few days so it was worth it.

Of course we had to stop in Wall, SD and have a quick bite to eat and look around at Wall Drug. Cree really enjoyed seeing some of the oddities they have there. And I got an audio book about Crazy Horse as well as a printed book by the same author also on Crazy Horse. I am hoping to listen to the whole book before we visit the Little Bighorn Battlefield and watch the reenactment on Saturday.

Tomorrow we'll make our way through the Black Hills, Sundance, WY and end up in Cody for the night.

So today's image was shot at the Jackpot ranch and it's of John who is Dallas' son in law. He was talking to Dallas when this image was shot from inside the barn. I know that he isn't looking at me but I thought is was a really cool image. I passed over it a few times but have kept coming back to it.

Have a great day!
