Yellowstone : Beautiful + majestic don’t begin to describe!

I grew up in the West, so I consider myself used to big skies and gorgeous valleys. I have even been to Yellowstone once before (as a 16 year old know it all), so as I planned a family vacation to this iconic American local I was going in with the idea that I had been there and see that. Yes I had seen Old Faithful erupt, but the beauty of not only Yellowstone but the entire Western region blew me away with its colors, vistas and skies. I could not put my camera down! I knew going in that Yellowstone was beautiful (duh, that is why it is the first National Park), but I was not prepared to fall in love with everything I saw. I am so grateful to live in this country that has so many different landscapes to enjoy.
