Travel Stories, Cruise Reviews, and Cultural Adventures

An annual autumn trip through Yellowstone National Park is a tradition we honor and enjoy. On this year's trek, we took along a California friend. Phyllis had never visited Yellowstone and although we didn't have time to give her a complete "immersion," we shared a few favorite nooks and crannies of this magnificent wilderness recreation area.

NOTHING LIKE a Yellowstone geyser to make you feel small, insignificant and aware of your "lowly cog" status in the the universe. Yellowstone, mostly in Wyoming but claimed by Montanans as ours, is the world's best place to see geysers. Oh, sure, they exist in Chile, Iceland and New Zealand, but not on the spectacular scale as the Yellowstone geyser bonanza.
