Not literally, but it’s still in my head, colored by minerals and algae.
Back to Yellowstone
An overnight stay in Rawlins, Wyoming
Continuing on today to see Becky and Brian in Erie, Colorado.
On the way here, we took a scenic route between Rawlins and Laramie we’ve been looking at for decades but not gotten to: Wyoming Highway 130 through the Snowy Range. It only adds an extra half hour to the trip if you don’t stop. But forget that. You’ll stop.
Help
I’m not through sending out Yellowstone pictures, but now we’re moving again. We drove south to Montpelier, Idaho.
Some KOAs are gravel parking lots. Not this one.
LeHardys Rapids
A good place for American Dippers. One of my all-time favorite birds. They feed underwater in swift water. Sometimes they walk around out of the water and pick at bugs and grubs underneath the surface.
Sometimes they go all-in and dive underwater to graze the deeper streambed.
Hayden Valley
A good place for bison.
And ravens.
Catching bugs.
And Trumpeter Swans.
