Sorry for the absence of posts.... :(

I apologize for the lack of posts. Right now is the training week so that we can open MHS in four days. Within the last week, Sam and I have met many people and have played volleyball every night since last Thursday...not to mention I am now caught up on Game of Thrones. Since I have left the bunk house things have been great and couldn't be all that much better.

It seems like this season is going to be very good. I can typically point out ones who won't make it and there haven't been many. There were six of us that hiked Beaver Ponds today which was awesome. We saw some trumpeter swans and a small black bear. If the internet was better pictures would arise.

I once told a person that I try not to hike the same trail twice or more but to my new beliefs of just having fun and meeting people; that has changed. I'm not saying that I can do Beaver Ponds every week but maybe one or two more times won't hurt.

The night is getting darker and I must retire. Pictures will come eventually but I cannot promise a time. The internet here is by far worse that usual and I'm still okay with that. One thing that is very new to me is this. People who came to Yellowstone did not drive a car to get out here...There are sooooooo many parking spaces close to the dorm it makes me feel like a king...at the same time, I feel like I might be a chauffeur...
