Big thank you to the team for covering for me so my family and I could take a before-school-starts vacation!
We left at 5am Saturday for our first destination of Wallace, ID - shout out to the wonderful couple who came in as a walk in to the retail store and told me how great that town is and convinced us to make it our first stop. We also had arrived just in time for the Wallace Huckleberry Festival, so that was so fun!
The obligatory Center of the Universe picture
The next day, we were headed to Bozeman, Montana- but made a pit stop at the Lewis & Clark Caverns for a really fun tour
And then when were were in Bozeman, a fun sign we found
The next day, we were headed to the north entrance of Yellowstone- Gardiner, Montana. On the way, we stopped in Virginia City to do some sight seeing
Once we arrived in Gardiner, we wasted no time going to see the Roosevelt arch at the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. We then popped in to see the Mammoth Hot Springs
The next morning, we were up and out by 5am and made it into Lamar Valley of Yellowstone by 5:30am in time for sunrise and all the animals waking up. We saw pronghorn, hundreds of Bison, Elk and heard the wolves near us. We did the grand loop of Yellowstone and ended our day watching Old Faithful.
The next day, we stayed in West Yellowstone and spent another day cruising Yellowstone and seeing all the things to see.
The next morning, before departing West Yellowstone, we did a 2 hour horseback ride - and honestly it was so fun. Our next stop was Twin Falls, Idaho.
and obviously, a stop at the Idaho Potato Museum
and a beautiful sunset to end our day
Our next stop on our second to last day was Pendleton, Oregon. Not much for pictures to share as our goal was to do some shopping!
and then finally, HOME 😊 after a week on the road it was nice to get home and get ready for the week ahead.
