like I said in my previous post... I left for the weekend. I didn't go far, but it was far enough to feel like I had escaped for a little while. I went up to West Yellowstone to take my room mate Courtney's engagement pictures and spend a little time with my friend Mallori at the PlayMill Theatre. If you are in the West Yellowstone area this summer, I highly recommend seeing one of their shows.
Anyway, pictures went great. We actually drove into Yellowstone to this really cool place called Fire Hole. There were waterfalls and just beyond the falls there is a swimming hole. I think we will go there later this summer for my birthday....
This is the one they decided on
beauties!
Another cool/funny/obnoxious thing was that the buffalo would not get out of the road. They would form a line and then spread out, I bet they were cracking up causing all kinds of traffic and frustration. Plus when you enter the park they give you this flyer that warns you, that you might be gored by a buffalo as they are not gentle, but very unpredictable, so you are fascinated and terrified all at the same time. I just didn't want them looking at me getting any ideas, I am not one to be gored by a buffalo. Although, I made quite a few jokes about being gored by a buffalo, and slashed in the face by a bear...
It was a good weekend, I was happy for the rest. Oh, I forgot to say that it was Courtney's car that I borrowed and right after they left to drive back to Rexburg I locked the keys in the car, and there isn't a spare. Well all I have to say is bless Jeffrey Gonzales and bless Triple A. Everything works out.
