Hope all the dads had a great day yesterday....we did a short 20 mile total ride yesterday since Loyal had driven so much the day before....we are back to work at 12:30 today as we rotate shifts every week....one week we work 7:30 till 4:30 and then the next week 12:30 till 9:30....we actually don't mind the switch as that give us morning time to do laundry, housework, etc....
It was nice talking to each of our kids over the weekend....and we continue to love them for allowing us to do "our thing" and never make us feel guilty....
Have a great week.....

6-15-2008--Bighorn Sheep on the rocks
This was an amazing sight.....these sheep on the ledges just ourside Gardiner as we were heading into the park Sunday for a short ride.....
6-14-2008-Sylvan Pass
Also on Saturday we drove all the way to the eastern entrance of the park....this is Sylvan Pass going towards Cody and has been under construction for over three years....we wanted to see it since the completion and it is beautiful....still lots of snow. the first picture is a beautiful view of the Teton's.....such a clear day we had....the next picture is at the end of the pass looking to Cody and the last picture is Yellowstone Lake with the beautiful snow covered mountain....gorgeous!!!!
614-2008---Moose and Rosie update
As you can tell the antlers are growing so fast on the bull moose....they are such an amazing animal.....there was a mom and calf that I had on an older post.....apparently the calf had been butted by a bison and was pretty listless for a couple of days.....the ranger said that one day she stood up, mom nursed her and into the woods they went.....Rosie update.....she is now being spotted frequently, but only has the one cinnamon cub with her.....she was limping, but apparently her gait is much better now.....
6-14-2008-Bears
Saturday was a great day.....we drove over 200 miles with our friends Ken and Cheryl Syndergaard.....Cheryl works with us at the store and they are from this area....we love running the park together.....we saw a total of three grizzlys and three black bears....one of the blacks was cinnamon colored and he was huge....the black bear up the tree was spooked by the crowd he had created..I have seen cubs scamper up a tree but never a full grown bear....
