Lazy Day Off

Well, I had good intentions of doing something physical today, but the book I was reading was good and the day just slipped by.  I did go over to the Yellowstone Art and Photography Studio, but it was closed due to staff training, whatever that means.  I'll check it out tomorrow.  I did get to socialize with a few of the folks around here. Got to hear all sorts of stuff about various jobs.  Most of it good.

I did stop at the Junior Range Station.  There was an interesting display animal skins, horn, antlers, skulls and rocks.  The ranger said the age range to be a Junior Ranger is 3 years old to whatever.  The oldest ranger he had was 94.

Because I was caught up in reading the book, I missed lunch.  I did have a pack a ramen noodles, my roomie has a hot pot, and  I have a plastic container that works as a big bowl.  Unfortunately, I did not have a spoon or fork, only a plastic knife.  So there I was, eating soup and noodles with a knife.  Funny situation.  When I get back home, I will probably have developed some strange habits.  well, stranger than those I already have

The attached picture are of Old Faithful Geyser.  Rose took it early this morning. It is just beautiful here..

    Hey, when I have a laxy, day, it usually means I have to stay near the toilet..as a matter of fact, I had a laxy day when I was in Lewisburg last time...I had to prep for a colonoscopy! Another observation, can't you get cutlery from the cafe? Or even better, make some chop sticks from an appropriate sized stick?

Finally, Wifi

Just regular bison photos that I can't get to the bottom of this blog.  More further down with the story that makes sense. I'm sitting in a McDonalds in West Yellowstone, Montana, because they have Wifi.  Yeah.  There is still no Wifi at the park.  it was suppose to be fixed over the weekend, but it's not.  Probably when I get back, it will be, but it is nice to get away from  Old Faithful and all the tourist, not to mention the log pine trees.  If I never see another pine tree, it will be ok because that is all I see here. Rose, my roomie, and I went to Mammoth Springs on Friday.  What a great day.  I was anxious to see some Red Dogs, the nickname for baby bison.  We did manage to see them in stages.  At one point, we were tied up in traffic for over 90 minutes because of a Bison jam.  We were told about 300 crossed the road.  That wasn't bad enough, so then a few of them decided to take a n...

Snowy Tuesday

I think that I eliminated a previous post about a Snowy Sunday-where I complained that there was snow on the ground.  Now there is another snow storm, this time leaving about 3".  It doesn't last long, but it's still here.  The temperature was in the single digits the other night. I did have a funny incident today.  Early this morning, I didn't hear my alarm, so my roomie had to wake me.  She was cool about it, actually thought it was funny.  later on in the day, I came home from work and flopped on my bed.  Patrice, my roomie, was taking a shower and an alarm started going off.  I assumed it was her alarm and when she got out of the shower, she would respond to it.  I just pulled my hearing aids and continued to lay around.  She comes out of the bathroom and tells me it is not her alarm, but a fire alarm, only a drill, but we still have to respond to it.  So much for ignoring alarms. Work is still going well.  I was in the...

Art, just mostly my art.

I am trying to be very funny with giving myself the artist title.  I am enjoying this new-found interest of watercolor painting.  I will never be great, but who cares?  I am and will be satisfied with my results.  So there!! lol. We are in week 5 of 6 in watercolor class.  I have learned so much between Jane, who is a wonderful instructor, more like a guiding spirit, and YouTube, that has tons and tons of information.  Knowing how I can get involved in something and leave everything else behind, I force myself to shine my kitchen sink, aka straighten up the kitchen, before I sit and watch and paint.  Not a bad life, I'll tell you. Enjoy the  refrigerator art.  Thanks.... This is one study we did in class, applying some new techniques Just pictures.  The one with the moon is salt added to the wet paint for the sky to give it a neat look Cute snow creature with practice pad colors on the edge I was just messing around...
