Yellowstone Day 9- Part 2










Our dinner was delayed a bit due to the bison in our camp but eventually after he had some food and took a rest in our grass he moved on. Finally it was dinner time and then we had a campfire with smores. We had a lot of fun playing games at campfire like telephone and just talking about our trip and experiences. After that it was time for a ranger program at the camp sites amphitheater. It was not until 9:30 at night so going there it was dusk. The talk was about the trout in the river and wildfires and coyotes. It felt different here at this site because it was just so dark, there were deer in the background and a storm was coming in so there was lightning. Then it was a very dark walk home. And of course, right to bed!




I have found a perfect retirement job for Tim and me… campground hosts. Our campsite is right across the way from the campground hosts and it has been so fun watching what they do. They have the most perfect site and a lot people stop and ask them questions. Tim could be the guy doing all of the security and safety stuff and I could answer all of the questions and talk to the kids. I cannot keep my kids away from them… Leah asks all day if she can go and talk with Lee. And they sit there and listen, they are very nice. Imagine spending the entire summer in Yellowstone, probably free of charge. Something to dream about! That is the end of day 9… tomorrow is horseback riding!
