Mapquest this!

We loaded up the van and headed west! YEAH.... We went to Milwaukee, WI for our first stop so we could meet our friend Sharla and her sweet baby girl, Piper for breakfast at the IHOP to catch up. Then we wound our way west. We took our time, enjoying the trip and the time together. My friend, Morty (that is her nickname in our trio and I will keep it at that, because I didn't ask her before putting her picture on here) got married in the most amazing weekend wedding! Wow, it was perfect. The setting, the people, the food.... Morty was a beautiful bride! We did it all: the Badlands, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Wall Drug, Devils Tower, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons. I won't go into it all, because I don't even know if anyone really reads this! I will share what will probably be one of my favorite memories. We were staying at the Old Faithful Snowlodge on our last night at Yellowstone park. I was sitting on the window seat working on my postcards when I look out the window and it was snowing!! This beautiful snow was falling over the old faithful geyser basin, in JUNE. I couldn't believe it, it seemed magical or out of a movie or something. I told Jack it was snowing and he just kep saying "Oh, really!?!!!"
