My trip to Yellowstone and Cody Wyoming

So yesterday, I went on a field trip for my American Humanities class. We left at 6am, and spent the whole day touring certain places at yellowtone, and going to Cody Wymoning, to go to the Buffalo Bill Museum. It was an amazing day, really long and tiring. But well worth it. I took over 100 pictures and am narrowing it down to about 20. Hopefully. But we have been studying intensely Native American Art, The artists who painted them, and Jackson and Moran. Moran is the man who painted the most famous picture that convinced the government that Yellowstone should be a national park. The picture is from the place called Artist Point. I have never even heard of it before this trip. It was the most beautiful and breath taking view I have ever seen. It is the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. Here is the painting



If you look closely and see the two men, that is Jackson and Moran, that is where we stood. It looks exactly like the painting. It was so beautiful. My pictures dont do anything for it.











This is me enjoying the view



After we left the canyon, we went to the falls that you see in the picture, but the road was closed for construction, so we went to the lower falls. I had never seen a real water fall in my entire life. So this was amazing.




Now to Wyoming, I took a million pictures here, so I am only going to show you about 3 really good ones. But I saw and learned so much about the Native Americans. And I have a MUCH greater respect for them, and the amazing life they use to live.



This was a hide that was painted and drawn on to tell the story of a massacre. It was over 200 years old.


This a picture of a geiser at sunset, I think that it is a beautiful picture.


Well that is a bit for you about my trip. It was scott's and I's first time apart for the whole day. I know that seems really silly, but it was really hard.lol...

YAY for school!

Well school is starting monday! And I am really excited to start school and to be busy again. Scott has started his new job on the design team, and loves it, he is really exciting, and is already hard at work. He is still working at the music department as their graphic designer. So yes, he is always gone, and I hardly see him, but I know that he is doing something that he loves to do. And he is really good at it. My bummer came when I bought books for this semester, and it cost me $352.00 Yes this is normal for me, because I have a major and a minor that requires a lot of reading, and books. We have a new bookstore, and its HUGE!!! It is now as big as the BYU bookstore in Provo. We are really excited, but for a moment in there, I thought I was in Provo.

My brother chance is now here, it is nice. He of course is spending all his time with his soon to be Fiance megan.

Scott and I are really excited to be getting our bed in a couple of weeks, it will be nice to sleep on a real bed, and not the floor basically.

Scott and I are going to celebrate our 6 month anniversary on September 21, and we cannot believe that we have only been married 6 months, it feels a lot longer then that, but we are still so much in love as always.

I am turning 21 in about 5 days! And i am trying to get some people to come and hang out, but school is starting so its going to be reslly hard. But we will see how it goes.

I hope that all of you are happy. And loving life.
