Awesome...Definitely jelly (as the kids say!)

Been to Yellowstone/Tetons twice on extended vacations - years ago. The last time was in 1999 - the first time was in 1984. Would love to do it again, I love it out there.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Very nice. Looks as if you had a good time.

There must be 2 signs at the Continental Divide--I have a photo there, but my sign was just at a wide place in the road:

We passed that sign, but there is better parking at the next one!

Ah, those pics remind me why every time I visit Montana/Wyoming, I don't want to come back. Got a pic somewhere of us parked on a two lane in Wyoming with Black Angus cows all over the road in front and behind us. Different sort of traffic jam. Smile Glad you enjoyed your trip.

Very cool vacation! I hope you didn't pay attention to the buffalo warnings. They're so cute, harmless, and really like to be petted Big Grin I've seen so many idiots in the Yellowstone area that really don't pay attention to the buffalo warnings. Never seen one gored but I have seen multiple chased.

Well, I did consider it when I retired from USAF (1980) but I still needed to work and I hate shoveling snow. I've been in Dallas for 38 years now.
