AN EVENING DRIVE
gOOD EVENING...HOW'S EVERYTHING GOING IN YOUR LIFE. WE ARE DOING WELL, HERE IN CODY, WYOMING. SATURDAY, THE 5TH, WE TOOK A GREAT DRIVE INTO YELLOWSTONE PARK. THE PARK SERVICE HAD DONE SOME RENOVATIONS TO MY FAVORITE PLACE IN THE PARK. THE PICTURE IS OF ARTISTS POINT. ISN'T IT GORGEOUS! THE FALLS THIS YEAR ARE SO FULL OF WATER. THE WHOLE PARK IS BEAUTIFUL THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF ALL THE WATER FROM THE MELTED SNOW. THE RIVERS ARE FULL AND LAKE YELLOWSTONE IS FULL. THE DRIVE WAS WONDERFUL, SO COOL AND NOT REALLY CROWDED BECAUSE WE WENT SO LATE. WE SAW TWO DIFFERENT HERDS OF ELK, SOME DEER IN THE ROAD AS WELL AS THE NORMAL BUFFALO...IN THE ROAD. (OH, THE DEER AND THE BUFFALO WERE ALIVE AND WALKING...JUST THOUGHT I WOULD THRO THAT IN SO YOU WOULDN'T THINK THEY HAD BEEN KILLED. THEY WERE STILL ALIVE AND WELL WHEN WE LEFT.) EVEN THE CARS WERE STOPPED....IN THE ROAD. IT IS SO BAFFLING WHY THEY MAKE PULL-OUTS AND THE TOURISTS REFUSE TO USE THEM. THEY SEE AN ANIMAL AND IMMEDIATELY, THEY STOP...RIGHT SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD....THEN THEY PILE OUT TO TAKE PICTURES....SOMETIMES THEY ARE MORE OF A PICTURE THAN THE ANIMALS...LOL
WELL, I TRIED TO PUT THE PICTURE OF THE SUNSET RIGHT HERE, BUT i STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE HANG OF ATTACHING PICTURES IN THE TEXT...BE PATIENT WITH ME I AM, AFTER ALL, A WORK IN PROGRESS...
ANYWAY, THE SUNSET IS COMING HOME, OVER LAKE YELLOWSTONE.
WHEN WE GOT HOME IT WAS DARK, AROUND 10:30 BUT THE DRIVE WAS REALLY INTERESTING. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE ALL OF THE RIVERS AND THE BUFFALO BILL DAM SO HIGH. LAST YEAR WE WERE ALMOST AT DROUGHT LEVEL AND NOW THEY ARE LAPPING AT THE BANKS. EVEN SOME OF THE TREES ARE ALMOST COVERED...LOOKS SUPER. WELL, IT'S GETTING LATE AND I NEED TO LISTEN TO THE OL' COYOTE, HE KEEPS TALKING ABOUT CAR PARTS..IT'S DIFFICULT FOR ME TO COMPOSE ON MY OWN, LET ALONE WHEN SOMEONE IS TALKING...THANKS FOR LISTENING; CATCHA LATER...CIAO
