May 26, 2007 – A beautiful day in Teddy Roosevelt National Park

After all the rain and wind during the night, the morning brought sunshine and blue skies (and the temperature reached 70!).

One of the main features of the park is the 36 mile scenic drive that takes visitors through the Badlands.

Spectacular views:

Strange formations:

Traffic Jams:

A smorgasbord of wildlife:
Buffalo:
Mule Deer:

Wild Horses, even:

Isn’t he cute!!!

And the prairie dogs – I just love them.

We took the Ridgeline Nature Trail hike. One of the views from the top (notice the path):

The ride actually took us a couple hours. We would stop and just enjoy the scenery and the wild animals. Awesome!!


And another great night at the campfire. Here is a picture of our site:
