Motorcycle trip post #1

So the weekend after we got back from Cali and Vegas, we headed off again for one last hoorah before school started. This time it was up to Idaho and Yellowstone and the Tetons in Wyoming for a motorcycle trip that had been planned for a little while. Jeff and Michelle and Dan all flew up to Salt Lake and we met up with them to drive up to Idaho Falls. Sam drove his motorcycle up and his bros rented some from the Harley place once we got there to Idaho Falls. We stayed the night then Jeff, Michelle, Steve, Sarra, Dan, Sam and I took off on our ride! We drove up through Idaho and Montana then turned and started back down through Yellowstone in Wyoming.. That night we stayed in Jackson, Wyoming and the next morning we drove back up to see the Tetons then headed back to Idaho. it was an awesome trip! and soo fun! we saw so many animals in Yellowstone and so many amazing views throughout the entire trip! We actually forgot our camera in Provo but Jeff and Michelle shared theirs with us which was so nice! thanks guys! so right now i only have a few pics from the first day when we went through idaho and yellowstone. pics of the last part of the day and the Tetons from the second day are coming soon..

At Sam's cousin TJ's house the morning we left:
