This white-tailed deer appeared on our trophy cam this morning and she appears to have fawns with her. Wish the photo was clearer! White-tailed deer fawns are born April through July, with the majority of fawns born in June.

Wyoming cabin on Snake River

Had a relaxing few days at this cabin, midway between Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. No TV, no internet, no cellphone service. Once we’d recovered from withdrawal symptoms, we enjoyed just sitting on the porch, smelling the pine trees, watching the sunset, gazing at the stars…

Old Faithful

No trip to Yellowstone is complete without seeing Old Faithful geyser and one of its frequent eruptions.
