Wyoming

We woke up from the KOA camp in Livingstone, Montana, right by the state line to Wyoming :) For those of you that don't know, the majority of Yellowstone national park is in Wyoming, beginning almost right at the border. We were surprised, driving through a small town, to discover not only that we were suddenly in Wyoming, but suddenly at the entrance of Yellowstone :)

First sight in Yellowstone: Elks on the lawn of the post office. Awesome :) Our destination was Ole' Faithful, but we saw a lot on our way there. There were so many hot springs, and beautiful lakes, and rivers that followed along the highway. We saw herds of buffalo (By the way, did I mention Dylan and I had Buffalo burgers in Montana?) and greenery, all around :) We went and saw the historic geyser ,and I'll be sure to post the video when I can :) Afterwords, the Holy Travlin' Trio got out their instruments and jammed out by the geyser. It made people smile, and that made us smile. we would hope we bring some joy to peoples' days. We closed our set with The Battle Hymn of the Republic. At the last verse, we heard from behind us, two loud and boisterous voices. Behind us was the sweetest elderly couple singing proudly of their God, and they joined us for the final chorus. They were thrilled to have heard us play that, and we were blessed to hear these voices proclaiming their love for the Lord, Jesus Christ. We left Yellowstone with happy hearts.

From there, we drove through the Tetons, and that was a truly magnificent sight :) From the Tetons, we made our way to Colorado :)
