Howdee all,
Hope you are not bored with Yellowstone yet!
Sept,3 Charlene, Jeff and I took a drive to Yellowstone Lake to take in the scene and look for mushrooms.
Jeff stopped and we checked out the ducks
They were too far away..and we didnt have our scope..Further south…we follow the Yellowstone river
Past Buffalo the skies showed showers around us…but we were still dry
We made it to Yellowstone Lake where Sicksta Charlene and I looked for mushrooms. We found boletus edulus (porchini) but most were past their prime.Mallard family
Gray Jays follow us as we look for mushrooms Charlene and I encounter a deer while mushrooming.
We never did get wet that dayThe clouds around the lake filled with light As distant clouds said Rain…
With a few mushrooms in hand…we start our drive back to Mammoth
Past a heart peninsula of Buffalo
We stop at an overlook to take in the scene… The BuffaloThe Buffalo and clouds…
And as we drive home …watercolor cloudsshow us the way….
Hope you are all having a nice Friday…
Jeff and i are on our way to visit friends in Portland, Oregon.
Have a Great Weekend!
How awesome Dawn...
ReplyDeleteWell what I was really going to say was "I hate you and you SUCK!" But that would just be the sour grapes I am growing him in my cube. LOL

ReplyDeleteGrow tired of looking at pictures of Yellowstone? Not me. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to seeing what you are up to next. Travel on.
ReplyDeleteSuperb stuff.
ReplyDelete"Bored with Yellowstone" ??? Does not compute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous area!
ReplyDeleteA friend who spoke at our recent Audubon says his heart is in the west. The East, he says, is picturesque, but the West is sublime. I'm not ready to admit he's right, but your pics certainly help make his case.
ReplyDeleteYellowstone is so vast, don't think I could bored with it. Glad you were able to find a few mushrooms. Hope they tasted good.
ReplyDeleteWhere to after Portland?
...beautiful post. I really enjoyed it--poetic as well as beautiful. And keep the photos coming......my goodness, it's so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow this is SOOO Beautiful! I'll share it with a friend of mine I'm sure he's gonna come up with one whole large poem about this place... lovely shots!
