Calm Before The Storm!
So the other day it felt like summer but today it was a winter blizzard here. Well not a blizzard but to me it was. We couldn't really see across the street at times. It was a complete white out. Even our snowcoaches weren't running today because it was so dangerous. The road from the north gate out to the northeast gate was closed. I think they tried to go plow it in the afternoon. But I don't know how that went. It's a good thing I went to Bozeman and I don't have to get out in this anytime soon. I felt sorry for people that were coming into the park today, because they couldn't. We had to refund their money or see if we could get them in tomorrow. We had those calls all day. But of course I was out playing in it at lunch. I made another snow angel. It was a little cold. But Fun. That is why I am here, to play in the snow. So just let it keep coming. We have around a foot to a foot and a half of snow here. In Grant Village, which is the southern part of the park, they have 5 feet. I would love to be down there playing it that. Well that's all for me hope everyone is well. Later

Felt Like Summer!!
Today I went to Bozeman. It got up to 45 degrees today. It felt like Summer. I was able to walk around without my winter coat on. I haven't been able to do that in a couple of months. Very exciting. We went to see National Treasure 2. It was really good, I don't really know which one I liked the most. I think they were both good. We also went to Walmart, Target and we ate at Famous Dave's BBQ. Which reminded me of Matt and Anne and the night before their wedding. When I was walking out Matt called me. He must have known that I was thinking about them and eating there. LOL. Well other than that nothing new is really going on. We are suppose to get a snow storm tomorrow. I hope it snows a lot, now that I have been to town and won't need to go for another month. Wow, that sounds crazy that I don't need to go into town for a month. Usually I would be going to walmart at least once a week. Crazy living out here in the wilderness. But it is fun and pretty, so it is worth it. Hope everyone had a good day. Later

Cold, Cold, & More Cold
Ok, so I woke up this morning to it being -17 degrees outside. A little cold you think. I was freezing. All I wanted to do was stay in my warm bed and sleep all day. But I didn't I had to go to work. I think it finally got up to -3. The high was suppose to be 1. But it didn't even make it to that. So Cold. But I made it though. I just wanted everyone to know how cold it was here. I hope that you guys are enjoying the 30 degree weather because that would feel like summer after today. Haha. Just kidding. Well I hope everyone is doing well. Later

SNOW!!!
Well since Mom and Allen left, I haven't done very much. I have been trying to get over being sick because everyone here is. And trying not to be around the people that are. Don't worry Grandma I'm taking my Vitamin C. And I have also been trying to stay warm. It has been a little cold and windy lately. I think the wind has the most part in it. So it makes it so much colder than it really is. I have been dressing in layers everyday. Even in my room. Sometimes Karen freezes me out but not a lot. We have a half way point that we met at when it comes to the room. Last Tuesday, we started up volleyball again. We took the holidays off. It's a lot of fun. Then last night I went to dance class. Did some line dancing, ballroom dancing, and a little swing. That is a lot of fun and a good workout. Today we went out to Lamar Valley. We didn't see any wolves, but we saw elk, bison, and a coyote. Before we went out to Lamar Valley, we went to Gardiner to get some gas for the jeep. And we saw 4 eagles. That was really cool. They are such beautiful birds. Well other than that not much is new with me. I'll be coming home in March for a couple of weeks, so I hope to see everyone. It will be around the 11 to the 23. I didn't realize it was Easter until after I got the plane tickets. Then I will be coming back out here. Well I hope everyone is well, Later.

Christmas Week
What a Christmas, a lot different than any other I have ever had. It was really nice that Mom and Allen got to come out. I had a lot of fun. They got here on Dec. 23, and the next day I worked and Allen went on a snowmobile ride to the canyon area. Mom had a relaxing day. On Christmas we went to Bozeman. And then on Dec 26, we went down to Old Faithful. We took a snowcoach ride down, it was a four hour ride. It was so pretty and there was so much snow. That afternoon, we went and saw Old Faithful and Beehive geysers go off. After that we all took a nap. That night we took a tour called Steam, Stars and Winter Soundscapes. It was dark and we walked around the fountain geyser basin. It was a clear night so we could see lots of stars. The next day, we went out to see Old Faithful again and then we sat in the lobby until we went back on the snowcoach to Mammoth. We went out to Lamar Valley the next morning. We saw 10 wolves, they said that there were 13 but I only saw 10. That afternoon, we went back to bozeman and ate at Famous Dave's then we went to walmart and got me some snowpants. The next day I went to work and Allen went back out to Lamar Valley to look for wolves. Mom and I went on a snowcoach down to the Canyon area the next day. It was a lot of fun. Lots of snow again. I made a snow angel, tried to make a snowman but the snow wouldn't stick. Yesterday, Mom & Allen left. We ate lunch together and then they left. It was a really good Christmas Week. I had lots of fun. And I am so glad that they got to come out. I missed all you guys back home for Christmas and I hope you all had a good Holiday. Happy New Year.
