Video #1 : I enjoyed looking at the trees and there were a lot of things to do outside. I am not that adventurous. I don’t like walking in dirt and I know I would never get on a small boat.

VIP Private Boutique Tour of Yellowstone’s Upper Loop – West Yellowstone, MT

The world’s first national park—and the world’s largest supervolcano—deserves more than just a scenic drive. Exploring the Upper Loop with a personal photographer and guide, you’ll witness Mammoth Hot Springs, scout for wildlife in the Lamar Valley, gaze upon Tower Fall, and experience the grandeur of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, all in one spectacular day.

VIP Private North Yellowstone National Park Winter Excursion

By Globe Trekkers Tours

Yellowstone National Park is arguably at its most magical in the winter when the crowds have gone and the wildlife is abundant. This private tour from Bozeman takes you into the park via the North Entrance and to steaming hot springs and geysers. While your guide focuses on driving, you can stay focused on looking for bison, elk, bighorn sheep, coyotes and more.

Nature Walk in Glacier National Park

By Glacier Guides and Montana Raft

Meet at Glacier Guides & Montana Raft at 9:30am to meet your guide and go over a brief orientation. Once in Glacier, you’ll get to explore Glacier’s natural wonders on a guided adventure! Start with a 1-mile round trip walk through Lake McDonald Valley, admiring its glaciated beauty and resident wildlife. Then, venture to the North Fork Valley with scenic stops en route. Take another 1-mile round trip walk along the Wild and Scenic North Fork of the Flathead River, learning about the environment and its history.

This engaging nature walk is easy, offering captivating insights. After the walk, return to the Glacier Guides and Montana Raft office in the early afternoon, benefiting from your knowledgeable guide’s expertise. Typically, the tour concludes around 1:30 PM. {}

I may not be the outdoor person and do love looking at the trees.

The End..

P.S- I am so over trying to get the pictures and words to go smaller. I may have to rethink on how or if go to Nebraska.

Online Traveling #24: Mississippi

I started watching videos and learning about different states across America. I found new places I would like to visit in reality one day. My next stop is Mississippi. I hope I find something interesting……

{} Mississippi State of the United States of America

    Mississippi is a state in the Southeastern region of the United States, bordered to the north by Tennessee; to the east by Alabama; to the south by the Gulf of Mexico; to the southwest by Louisiana; and to the northwest by Arkanasas.  Mississippi is the 32nd largest by area and 35th-most populous of the 50 U.S states and has the lowest per-capita income in the United States……. Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi  {}

Madison Mississippi caught my attention. I thought I would click on a video or two, then look up some more info online, because I was hoping to see something new.

The few up to date videos were about where to and where not to live, and that lost my attention all together. So, I am going to start looking elsewhere, because I am sure there will be something to see and do in Madison Mississippi.

{} Madison, Mississippi City in Mississippi, United States

Madisonthecity.com       

Madison is a city in Madison County, Mississippi, United States. The population was 27,747 at the 2020 census. It is part of the JacksonMetro  politan Statistical Area.  Wikipedia {}

I am looking through tripadvisor:

https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g43869-Activities-Madison_Mississippi.html

There were only 4 things listed and only 1 caught my attention, ā€˜Sugar Magnolias Gifts & Boutique/Art Gallery,’ but I couldn’t actually see it for myself. The website wasn’t working. No, I didn’t read the reviews. I didn’t see the point.

Time to move on…. A random video..

side  note: I was going to start looking up more info, but I am not going to force myself to do that. I am sure there are some interesting things to do and see and I am just not finding them. 

I am ending this with more questions than answers and I am okay with that or am I? {It’s 2:24pm now. Will one more time}

~ I got side tracked for traveling online.  I am going to get back to what I started months ago. Keeping one’s word is always the best. 

**It’s 4:04 pm and I have to go backtrack to the last place I visited. Be right back. hahahahaha  

 That didn’t take long. It’s 4:13 pm and I am off to Mississippi. I can’t wait to learn about this state.
I may forget, or something else has caught my eyes, but if it’s really important. I always get back to that first thought. Oh well it’s time to say, ā€œBye IV Now,ā€ LD*

Online Traveling #23 Minnesota

I had started looking for videos in Minnesota, but I couldn’t find any. I was about to give up on this state, but I really didn’t want to believe that I couldn’t find something nice to do in Minnesota. Then I asked Google a question and this site came up:

I love going to the malls.  One doesn’t have to go to the mall to shop. The mall is the best place for walking in a cool atmosphere. One can also plan their shopping day as they walk past each shop. My eyes were wide open when I took a virtual tour of ā€œThe Mall of America.ā€ There is something for every age and one may have to come back a few times before seeing everything. Cool for me…

Video #1 – I enjoy this video. I REALLY want to go to this mall. Click on the website and find out more info……

I went back on youtube to find some more videos, but other than school stuff and showing a new house to buy – it was a bust. I came across another website…   https://leechlake.org/

At first look, I thought it was going to be all about fishing, but I was wrong. There are a lot of things to do other than fishing. I couldn’t find a video other than fishing, so if you like to see some of the nature walks, bike riding, and so on. 

Here are a few sites when I asked this question, ā€œthings to do in Minnesota?ā€:

I am cutting my stay in Minnesota short and getting back to working on my burgundy project.
