Some of Yellowstone

Check out the buffalo who was actually laying there rolling around when I first came upon this spot. I wonder if the "soil" has some toxic properties that do anything to his coat.


Devil's cave, I think it was called. It emitted a growl which was pretty neat. All of the pools and gyesers stunk to high heaven of sulfur.

On the way out of the West exit of the park, in the Shoshone National Forest:

Some reservoir.
Coming towards Casper, WY.

Here are some of my photos from Yellowstone. The rest are on another computer, so it may be a few days before I can post them.
Animals I saw:
1 Yellow Bellied Marmot
3 Black Bear
1 Grizzly bear
Too many Bison to count
8 white pelicans
1 Moose
1 coyote
1 fox
Lots of elk- probably the same ones hanging out on the lawn at Mammoth Springs
Too many Prong Horn Antelopes to count

Crafts and Clayton

Here are some coasters I made. I gave them away to a couple getting a new home.
These are some of the dish towel dresses I have been making.

"Mom, I gotta have something from Cabelas.

Clayton loves smoothies.

Meet Me at the Park

The base has a park play day on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Clayton has fun being independent. Look he can lift that weight with one arm. He's struggling. :) Grandpa should be proud of the lawnmower skills. Future basketball player?

More from the CSA

This is a breakfast casserole I made with the spinach. Actually, the pie was not from the CSA. I thought we would get more rhubarb last week, but we didn't, so I had to use the strawberries I bought. I ended up making a strawberry blackberry pie.



This is the kale which I used for 2 quiches. One wasn't too hot, but there's another one in the freezer.
