Yellowstone, Yukon, Yosemite

A Fellow Traveler in a Yellow shirt,
and Late Summer Yellow flowers,
and a Yeti friend.


Two of my favorite National Parks,
my life-long love in yellow,
one of my favorite rivers,
some yellow flowers,
and a tall Yeti.
Enjoy all


Yellowstone Twin Storms

Yellow flowers in Montana Buffalo Country
Rocky Mountains in the background
The Rockies are composed of several Ranges in this area such as,
The Lewis and Clark Range,
and The Flathead Range


~~~ Yeti ~~~
A friend that Martha made on the trip.
This Yeti (from Asia) was visiting
his Sasquatch relatives


I hope you enjoyed this tour of Y's.
Leave a comment if you have visited these places,
or if you enjoyed the mini-trip.

    Tell Martha I love her stance .. she got the posture right but she's too pretty to be mistaken for a Yeti .. and I dont know her well enough to know if she's a yenta ...

    Now, you have great pictures of your country: Yellowstone Park speaks to my imagination, as I have seen it in many movies and that goes also for Yukon River. Great choices!

    "Louis" had forgotten about the Lewis and Clark and Flathead ranges in the Rockies.

    Over at San Francisco Bay Daily Photo, "Louis" and his 'Editor' Yell at each other both in the text and in the comments....

    The top picture is quite awesome - the third though a typical tourist shot the inclusion of the figures puts the landscape into perspective.

    Any mention of Yellowstone though instantly makes me think of Yogi Bear which is awful of me I know.
