Our first big trip after retirement was to Yellowstone. We spent 6 weeks and loved every minute of it. If you've never been to that area before, please leave yourself time to explore and time to just sit at the campsite and enjoy. The Black Hills are fabulous and Custer State Park is a good base. Plan on 3-4 nights in that area. We went later in the summer. Our friends went to Yellowstone in June and weathered a snowfall or two while there. It takes ALOT of driving to see Yellowstone, so give yourself plenty of time to see things and time to hang out. Have fun planning!
