I'm back!! sorry for the absence ;-(

ok, ok, I slacked off big time. There were several reasons my posts ended. Our computers went down in the dorm, and loading pictures on my little notebook that I could barely see the pics on wasn't very satisfying, so I stopped posting. Second, I got so into the wildlife watching in every spare moment, that I just didn't stop to do much of anything else. The job was quite consuming, working in reservations, on a computer all day......well, you get it.

I left Yellowstone May 18th and headed back to Oregon. As some of you know, my one and only daughter, Lindsay had a wedding planned for August 27th. I was starting to feel very left out of all the planning and knew that my heart belonged there, with her in Oregon. So, I left out of Yellowstone early, a month shy of my contract period.

also, I have to say, that I got very spoiled during the spring, when there were few people in the park and NO motor homes. As soon as some of the other entrances opened up, people started arriving in droves. it was a bit unnerving, and having to fight for a parking space when the animals were out was no fun.

We got through the wedding, and I think I'm finally recovered from that major life event. What a joy to see my daughter so happy, and to be a part of a dream wedding that she put together.

I've got some great shots to post of the amazing things that I saw in the last month I was in the park. But the BIG NEWS IS..........I'M GOING BACK!!!!!
Yep, I got re-hired, and I'm only commiting to a month this time, to help close up the park for the winter. I'm really looking forward to spending some fall time there.

So, I'm back into Yellowstone mode, and will hopefully catch you up on things before I leave for the park. Like I said, I've got some amasing pictures.(wolves, moose, fox) Well, amazing to me. What I saw was amazing, (wolves) perhaps my skills aren't amazing, but what I saw was.......
until then,
