the tram. i didnt realize i was looking at idaho. just a great view though.
so yesterday i drove up thru yellowstone again and went out the east entrance. wow! that way is a twisty turney thing. dont go that way fi you are in a hurry. well....nothing about yellowstone works if you are in a hurry. i saw a moose in the water for the second day in a row, wading and munching. males with the antler table. then later i was driving through a wooded area and looked out my window to see a huge buffalo male lying 4' from the road on a ledge at my eye level....chewing his cud. later i rounded a curve and there was a huge buffalo sauntering along the edge of the road on the 3' strip between the white line and the edge of the pavement. i stopped as he walked by and his hump went almost to the top of the roof on my dodge 3/4 ram. i would guess over 6'.
when i got out of the park the road wnt on and on and there was a section of road with more of those 20 mph switchbacks. (it was just a big red line on the map) and as i crested the hill, i had a tremedous view out maybe 50 mile over the lower land.
lots and lots of horses grazing. they outnumber any other livestock there about 10 to 0ne.
today i have to make it to emmitsberg iowa to pick up my favorite machinists crank grinding heads. hopefully b 500 pm.
i am off!
