We went to Yellowstone National Park. It was really fun we saw bison, deer, elk, pronghorn sheep, and lots of birds. You could almost always tell when there was some animal around because people were parked on the side of the road. We spotted some animals by our selves also. We went to a ranger talk and learn about some animals. I did not know that bison could jump about six feet high they look like they can barely jump a inch. Rahab Jadon and me each did the junior ranger program and got a really cool badge. We went and saw old Faithful it shot up really high it shoots up about every 68 minutes. What I thought was really cool abut the hot springs was all the different colors, it was really pretty. One of my favorite things that we saw was flying mud. The mud was an interesting color a creamy or a light gray color. The mud would bubble and then pop right up in the air so it would look like it was flying. We saw one of the hottest hot springs in the world and one of the biggest hot springs in the world. We saw three big waterfalls up close and one far away. The waterfalls were called Gibbon Falls, Tower Falls, Twin Falls (upper falls and lower falls). Then we went to a place where a very small river called the Boiling river (its really hot) meets the cold Gardner river we made chairs out of rocks. When you sit down you get this really weird feeling because one river was cold and the other hot so you get an icy and hot bath all at once. The funny thing is that the water mixes but the Gardner river stays the same cold. We saw Mammoth hot springs some of it was dried up. Mammoth hot springs was like a hot tub at the top and then some steps going down with water going down, it was really pretty. I really liked Yellowstone and would go back, it was really fun and there is so much to do.

We went to Yellowstone. We had a great time at Yellowstone. I think Yellowstone is the best! We got one book about Yellowstone and a badge. I had to finish my ranger book to get my badge. I think the rangers are the best. They keep the animals safe in the wildlife. When we were headed on the road I spotted a whole herd of bison. I learned bison can jump 6 feet. I think Yellowstone was very nice. We hopped in the pool and mommy did laundry. We went out for pizza, its a family tradition to go to The Gusher! We saw lots of hot springs. Old Faithful was the best! It was a great time watching it explode really high. I thought it tricked us because it starting shooting out water and then stopped. We saw the Yellow Stone River.

We went to Yellowstone National Park. We went to Old Faithful Geyser. We also saw the Grand Geyser go off. We also went to the visitor center, Old Faithful Inn and Old Faithful Lodge. The next day we went to Gibbon Falls. We went to Beryl Hot Springs. It was one of the hottest ones in Yellowstone. It was really blue and bubbly. Then we went to Mammoth Hot Springs. We drove down to the Boiling River. It was really hot! We sat right where the Boiling River flowed into the Gardener River. We saw some elk. We also did a ranger talk and completed our ranger books. I learned from the ranger talks that bison can jump 6 feet! I was excited to get my ranger badge. I never knew that a stream could be warm. I felt it. It was coming off the Mammoth Hot Springs. Then we went to Tower Falls and Twin Falls. There was an upper falls and lower falls. We went to Excelsior Geyser. Years ago it stayed on for 400 hours. Somebody had put a tripod in it. Some people lost their hats on the ground. Somebody’s also lost their map. We saw flying mud at the mud pots! We saw Mr Gloopy’s mud factory from Candy Land. I loved watching the mud fly. Then we went swimming at the KOA camp.
I loved Yellowstone!
