Ok crazy

Ok, I know I just wrote like a couple of hours ago. But I have to put this one in. We were getting ready to go on a hike. So we got out of the car and started to walk to the path. I was just kidding around and said "Ok, I'm done that's enough of a hike" then I turned around and there was a black bear about 100 feet away from us just walking to us. So we walked (very slowly) back to the car and watched it and took pictures. Then it just walked right up the path we were going to walk up. It I wouldn't have been joking he would have followed us and then scared us to death. I'm so thankful I was joking around. That was probably the scariest moment I have had here so far. But I'm ok so not to worry. So sorry Champ people It didn't eat me today, like you guys thought. haha. Just kidding. I miss all of you guys.

Yesterday!!

Hey everyone. Yesterday was awesome. We saw 8 wolves. 2 were about 50 yards away and the others were probably 150 yards away. It was really cool to see them. I almost hit a bison. It ran right down a hill in front of me, but I stopped just in time. That would have been a story. We just missed out on seeing 2 more grizzly bears. We went to see old faithful. It was very cool. And we saw more other geysers. It was a very good day, except for that fact that we were in the car most of the day. But overall it was a very good day. Later

O by the way just click on the bear picture to see more pictures. I went in and made sure you could see them. So if you have anymore trouble, just leave me a comment and I will try to fix it. Thanks. Later.

More Days in Yellowstone

So this week has been kind of crazy. Learning all the new keys for the computer system. But everyone keeps telling me that once I get on the floor it won't be as bad. Well I'm hoping they are telling me the truth. And whats funny is that at Champ, I was so excited about not having the safety meeting anymore. Well guess what? Today we had a safety meeting. So I know that all of you that are reading this from Champ are laughing. And Hi to all of you. I miss you guys. Not so much the work, but I do miss you guys. Well a couple of days ago, I saw some bison and their calves. They were so cute. And then we go on a hike everyday after supper, so yesterday this lady said she knew an easy one. Well we walked for a miles and a half and we were like "Ok how much farther" The lady then told us that she didn't really know where we were going. So we ended up walking around 3 miles. It was a little crazy at the time. But it was a good walk overall. Then someone I work with wants to go on an 8 mile hike this weekend. We are still trying to decide if we want to try that one or not. Well so far I am having a great time. Later

2 Grizzly Bears

Today was awesome!! I saw two grizzly bears in the park. They were cubs we think around 2 years old. We were just across the street from them. We watched them for probably an hour. It was the coolest thing I have ever seen. They were very playful with each other. Also when I woke up this morning I looked outside and we had 2 inches of snow on the ground. So I knew my day was going to be awesome. We went on a tour thru the whole park. We saw waterfalls and geysers and hot springs and everything else. I put some pictures up. It was so pretty because of the snow. Well tomorrow we go back to the office but o well. I can't wait to see what else I'm going to see as this summer goes on. Later.

HALF WAY THERE

Hey everyone, I’m in South Dakota. I’m half way there. I’m still really excited about going even though it was hard to say bye to everyone. I miss everyone already. Today we just drove for 12 hours, it was boring. I slept most of the way. Allen drove the whole way, he wouldn’t let me drive. Just kidding. I offered but he said that he was ok so I let him drive. Tomorrow we are driving 11 hours and I’m going to drive some of it. So I’m going to go to bed now so I can get up early. Talk to you guys later. Love ya.

Fantastico Weekend

10 Days until I leave for Yellowstone


This weekend I went up to Matt and Anne's house. It was awesome to get to see them and hang out with them. And just to let everyone know the fantastico that I put in the title is a word I made up while I was there. (I know that it is not a word and it is spelled really weird.) Well anyways, I went up there Thursday and came home yesterday. I had a little bit of trouble on the way up, the roads can be confusing!! I am glad that Allen is going with me to Yellowstone because I would probably be in the east somewhere if I was going by myself. Thanks Mom for your sense of direction. Just kidding Love you!! As I was saying, I got to see Matt and Anne and their new place. It was very nice. And I can't wait to see you guys again in September! They are going to be the first people I see when I get done working in Yellowstone. Oh by the way, hopefully I won't have 15 dozens eggs in my jeep again when I come up. haha. I'm going to go now as you saw at the top I have 10 days until I leave for Yellowstone, so I have lots of things to get done. It is getting so close. But I still can't wait. Talk to you later, and see some of you on Saturday.
