Photo does not do justice to the hot spring we visited this morning, and all the lower pools full of milky turquoise water 🌀Luckily we hiked up early and there were just a couple other soakers, we passed about 40 people on the way out! (at Spanish Fork, Utah)

About this time last year we were closing up our loop around the western states! Makes me miss the big open deserts and the solitude 🌅 (at California)

We've picked buckets of tomatoes lately, and this is our old window ripening station. I 🍅 it. (at Victor, Montana)

We're finally getting some reprieve from the smoke thanks to a nice chilly front. It also brought the first snow to the mountains! We might experience a real winter this year you guys and I. Am. Scared. (at Victor, Montana)

If you followed us last year you know we had the hardest time leaving this place (and our friends and their sweet kids). But thankfully we're just going for a little cruise around Montana/Wyoming and then we'll be back 🙃✨ (at Bitterroot Valley)

How nice to see this on an ice cream run 🍦✨ (at Bitterroot Mountains)

Super happy birthday to this cat, who loves all dogs, tries to talk to birds, and is my awesome partner in silliness and adventure! 🎂🎈 (at Montana)
