Proof we were here Fargo farm where we ate lunch in the hot sun At the library on our day off Cotton candy or cookies and cream? Vote now in the comments of blog “Week 8” I feal like this picture is only possible in North Dakota Wood chipper from “Fargo” the movie On our way from Fargo to Bismarck One long highway across the whole state Largest buffalo in the world!?! View of the country-side at a rest area Working at the state capitol library Pretty cool building A wire horse? Seems like we only take pictures with fake animals Making salad with grilled chicken Order up: “two salads” Bismarck was surprisingly nice River trail in the park Wow great sunset Longest day of the year Taking in the view Missouri river Another day, another library Testing out the hammock A well deserved nap Where’s the baby… …there he is! So I took the camera on a walk by myself… Turns out I had it on the wrong setting… The black and white setting Fixed it! Great view from a hill in Bismarck Waterpark on a hot day Wedgie time Relaxing Make your own frozen yogurt Woah cool lightning in the distance Highway rest area with a small lake Goodbye North Dakota
Photos from Theodore Roosevelt National Park
Gotta get a picture with the sign Another good first impression The photo behind the photo Posing for the camera First area: Painted canyon Ready to explore our third national park Hey pretty lady My stoic face Walking quick nature trail down into the canyon Maybe the first wild cactus I’ve ever seen Cool erosion Our first wildlife viewing Woah a rabbit didn’t make that track We make a good team Finishing the trail Second area: South Unit A prairie dog city Wild horse on a hill Interstate runs right through the park There is a Bison in this photo! Can you spot it? There it is Another great view, skyline vista Driving deeper into the park Another prairie dog area Finally using the monocular I got as a kid Do not feed the prairie dogs The wind canyon trail Got to stay hydrated! The Little Missouri River Twofie time Erosion here is primarily caused by wind Look a whole herd of bison View through the monocular Roadside bison Another quick trail Boicourt Overlook So is this a selfie or a twofie? Great view Wild horses on the hill top We were pretty close Top of Buck Hill Taking it all in More horses The baby was rolling around and playing More bison Right outside the window Wind is picking up Umm, obstruction ahead It is blocking the trail Prairie dog and bison together Apparently the prairie dog was blocked by the caption so here it is again from a different angle We had to keep backing up Looks like it is going to charge Final overlook Selfie with the badlands A couple more bison on the way out Bison or buffalo? Same thing in North America Our backcountry camp spot Neighbors have arrived Back into the park for sunset Shelby’s camera takes great sunset pics Awesome Sunset bison Wow great colors The photo behind the photo Another bison Sunset from our camp Driving out in the morning Third area: North Unit Peaking out from a small cave Awesome erosion here Pretty cactus King of the hill Cannonball concretions Awesome natural formations Looks so cool Lots of roadside pull-offs with info Starting a long hike Don’t touch the cactus Watch out for bison on the trail Woah a small ravine The Caprock Coulee trail Happy to be hiking again Amazing views from the top There’s the road down below We saw lots of bison poo, but no bison on the trail (thankfully) Cool a little hut thing Another view of the Little Missouri River Love this picture Nice framing Shelby Took a while to get the phone to sit up on the rocks Walking back down another trail Woah cool landscape here This was the trail! Lots of holes and crevasses here Very funky, can you see me?
