month 2 and so on....

Sorry for the lack of updates the internet is harder to access than i thought ...
month 2 and so on
The second month in Yellowstone has gone by even quicker than the first. The weather is finally starting to heat up fingers crossed we don't get snow in July. Lots of interesting things have happened.My family came to visit from Salt Lake City Utah it was so good to see them. Trina (my roommate) and i had a couple exhausting days trying to keep up with the crew. We went to Canyon (another location within the park) and saw the huge canyon with a 300 foot waterfall flowing into it it was so pretty! I also saw the various geysers around the park such a norris geyser basin ect. Also went Old Faithful once again but it was so crowded it made me very happy I work at Mammoth away from the majority of the tourists.The same weekend also happened to be the annual rodeo in Gardiner (about five miles down the road) it was an interesting to see to say the least. Firstly it was pouring down with rain so it made the area so wet and muddy! There were lots of events I couldn't watch the calf roping though it was horrible I couldnt stand the calfes screaming! My favourites were the bull ridding and the calf scramble, which involved all the young kids chasing after ribbons on calves tails and got 10 for a ribbon.
