Pay attention

Although I really like working at the Geyser Grill, being in the lobby is sometimes annoying.  so here is my advice, if you are in a restaurant that has a clear your own table rule, DO IT.  If you are sitting in a section that gets closed, MOVE TO AN OPEN SECTION.  Can you guess that some people have done that to me today?  As the schedule goes, we close at 5 PM, but still have to clean up.  we can close 2 of the 3 sections as soon as the last geyser goes off closest to 5 PM and clean up those sections, but not if someone is still sitting there.  The real problem is that dinner at the EDR, employee dining room, finishes at 6:30. So it's a rush to get finished and get to dinner.

Other than that, life is good.  I'm off Friday and Saturday and am planning my hike.  The visitors center has a list of when some of the geysers go off and I'm told I'll be able to plan my hike based on that schedule.  I was planning to take whatever bus tour was happening, but then found out that there are no tours until mid-May.

I bought a book about Yellowstone, a field guide covering all the stuff like flowers, bugs, animals, geology, etc.  Interesting reading.  Looking forward to using it.

    I spend hours and hours where ever I go reading up on the history and places of interest..to me that is at least half the fun of travelling..it is a form of immersion.. to travel one becomes a student of everything...enjoy

Still more art

Image
gorgeous sunset taken by Flora who especially liked the juxtaposition of the Amish hay mounds and the electric wires.    This blog starts off with a picture just to get your attention. Flora was quick on the camera button, once again. I'm having issues thinking of different names for the blog title. I seem to be in a rut. but then again, perhaps I am. The art classes are great.  As much as I enjoyed watercolor at Yellowstone. it was only a tiny taste of how satisfying it is.  Joan and I are both surprised and quite pleased with the results we have. We both feel like we discovered something important to us, to our souls, or our spirits.  Anyway, all the pictures are mine, but you get to meet Joan and Jane and a glimpse of Susan. I have some descriptions on each one to let you get the feel of it.  I wish I could explain the  joy painting these pictures gives me.  I had no idea I could actually do something like this, but then again -- it is...

Bozeman

Clara and I met up with Julie, friend from Bozeman who took us on a tour of the town, lunch at a neat restaurant, the Naked Noodle, and then the Museum.  MOR--Museum of the Rockies, they have a spectacular dinosaur collection and lots more.  a nice laid back day with Clara and Julie.  Two more days before I head to Yellowstone.  I vacillate between anxiety and anticipation.  Sometimes at the same time.

Saturday Night Radio

I know listening to the radio Saturday night doesn't sound like a barrel of monkeys, but it truly is a relaxing way to spend the evening. Especially since I was radio deprived in Yellowstone aka YNP.  Way back in the day, 1990's I started listening to Saturday night PBS radio shows while Than did the race track announcer at Greenwood Action Track.  The newest show, Live from here  isn't as good as  Prairie Home Companion,  but I may just be reluctant to change.  The music is really good. The comedy is amusing, sometimes roaring funny. I dropped my phone in the toilet bowl the other day.  I didn't even realize that I had lost it.  Than comes out of the bathroom asking why my phone is in the toilet. I have lost almost all the the phone numbers I had. How annoying.  I did get a new phone, so another phone to learn. Will it ever end. Please call me to find out if I lost your number.  I probably did.  Whoever is reading this, plea...
