Once a year on a very special day, we book a private charter snow coach for Lyrik's birthday. For the past six years Alpen Guides out of West Yellowstone has been there to ensure Lyrik gets his trip into Yellowstone on his birthday (or near his birthday).
So with the family packed and ready to go we set out into Yellowstone on the morning of January 24th to see plenty of wildlife, geysers, beautiful sites and even more smiles and laughter. Lyrik is now seven years of age and he can now say he has been going into Yellowstone on his birthday even before he can remember.
At the end of the day, tired and sleepy boys smile with the memories they have created for the day here in Wonder Land. Memories have been built, traditions have been held steadfast. Memories and traditions more valuable than any plastic toy; and perhaps memories they will use to pass along to their own children one day, through their own family traditions. Who knows how they will start their traditions when those days come, but I do know how proud of a day that will be.
