A Little Cold

This morning I woke up and it was -6 degrees outside. It was so cold. I woke up in the middle of the night freezing because Karen opened the window because she was hot. Then she shut it and turned up the heat when we realized just how cold it was outside. So I was asking myself "What am I doing in Yellowstone in the winter when I don't like the cold?" Well it is pretty that's why I guess. And it really is. It has snowed off and on for the last couple of weeks. Up here at Mammoth it snows and then melts so I haven't been able to make a snowman. Sad. But other than that. Mom and Allen are coming out in less than 2 weeks and I can't wait. It will be so much fun. We have a lot of activities we are doing. So I will but some pictures up after they are here. Anyways the other night I was nicely woke up at 4am because a coyote was outside our dorm howling. He was really loud too. So I watched him for a little while until he moved out of the view of my window. It was a scary way to wake up. They tell me to just wait for when the wolves come around. That is really scary. I hope that I do get to hear them and also get to see them. I'm always at work when people spot them. Well I hope everyone else is staying warm and remember me out here freezing. :)

I am glad you are dealing with it, and not me. I hate the measly 10 inches we have here. That is like Spring in Yellowstone.
