The Proper Temperature To Drink Red Wine

The best way to drink Australian shiraz is cooled in a snowbank at your 8000 ft altitude campground in Yellowstone park. Celebrating an entire day of sunshine!
We are in Yellowstone, so you know where we went first.
It went right on time too. We watched with a few other tourists.
You might recognize the Old Faithful Inn in the background. It is amazing!
 The Old Faithful Inn was built in 1903. At 75 feet high inside, it is one of the largest log structures in existence. The stone fireplace contains 500 tons of stone. Notice the use of rustic design in the trees and braces used to support the balconies. We're going to eat dinner there on friday.

The yellowstone area has wonderously colorful hot springs.
Did I mention who walked down the road ahead of us at one mile per hour???

  1. Wine at any temp is good, if you ask me! That hot spring looks crazy and that water buffalo looks like he dressed for the weather you have been having!!

  2. These photos look like postcards. Those buffalo do look like they're not too worried about tourists at the moment.
    I have to say, seeing that wine in the snow reminds me of that...Christmas? Thanksgiving? with all the wine and beer on the deck in the snow.
