This post is an experiment. I want to know what happens when I finish a post that I started months ago and left as an unpublished draft. Will it be posted with today's date attached (it is actually January already!) or with the date it was originally attached to? Because if it is the latter, then that opens a whole new world of possibilities to a procrastinating blogger such as myself.
In July we went to Yellowstone. Yellowstone was one of the destinations on our list of places to visit with the whole family before our children start moving out on us. We haven't finished the list yet, which is why Erin and Bayley can't move out yet. We actually tried to go last summer. But when you call the West Yellowstone KOA in May and say you want to stay there in July, they politely chuckle at you and then suggest that you call around October and schedule something for next July. Which is what we did. And which is why we didn't even think of cancelling our plans when Kris broke his leg two weeks before our scheduled departure. One thing I might do differently if we were to return though, the KOA is not really all that close to the park, so I think I would try to get a place to stay that is actually in Yellowstone. You might have to call earlier than October. And, there is the bear factor too, it turns out there are bears in Yellowstone, and apparently they occasionally they eat park visitors, so one of the cool lodges would definitely be my preference. No tents.
But, what I am really trying to get to is the pictures. This was our first major trip in which multiple people carried cameras. And cell phones. So there are literally hundreds of photos.
