Who would have guessed how much fun people would have creating their unique costumes, I radioed the ranger service and let them know we are staying one more night here. So you have more time to prepare your costumes and your stories for the fire ... I know I saw a couple really scary creations, one that could easily be mistaken for a skeason . Thank you, Charlie for the idea *Bigsmile*
Now, I know they are grown adults but Charlie ~ and Cinn went to gather what they needed for their costumes and it has been over 8 hours since they've been seen. What do you think... leave them to their own devices, contact the rangers, or should we form a search party?
And I don't want to alarm anyone but the ranger service did say there are brush fires north of us, so we need to be aware of what is happening around us and take every precaution with our campfire. Has anyone seen a wildfire before?
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

I enjoy in making and creating costumes for the parties. That is the only time in your life where you are totally allowed to be what or whoever you want to be. Last year I felt like Alice, drowned down into the hole of Wonderland and people liked it actually. Mostly people in your life will always say how they don't like double-faced personalities, masks and then suddenly they like your mask. I think we need to be different from time to time otherwise we'll get boring. *Smile* But, it's also important to pick up the right costume, the one that will make you feel comfortable in and that will make you express yourself in the way no one thought you would. And at the end you have to stay literal to yourself. Don't go too far with it because you wont find the way back.
I was helping to Princess Megan Rose 22 Years with her costume because she only had some leaves for her head when Lyn's a sly fox approached to us saying that Kylie and Charlie are missing. Megan started to worry instantly but I convinced her that they're alright and maybe just now looking at us and laughing behind some bush. They want to see our reaction for their missing. *Bigsmile* I believe if Dragon is hiding came back in one piece, and she is younger and was alone then, why wouldn't Kylie and Charlie? Maybe they're making some scary costume out there in the forest and they will show up in the middle of our 'ghost story' and scare the shit out of everyone. *Laugh* I saw Cheddah worry as well about these two, she even bite her nails. I've got fresh, cold water for her and I tried to keep her calm. She said she will try to keep her attention on her costume. Now, where is writingbyjazzy? *Rolleyes* There's a book from my elementary school that I remember, it's written by Bosnian author Ahmet Hromadzic and the name of the book is 'Okamenjeni Vukovi'(en. Petrified Wolves). I tried to find it in English on Google but they don't have. Anyway, the reason why I'm saying this is that the book reminds me of that wildfire you mentioned above. It's about little fawn who lost his mother when he was a baby while his father died before he was born. While his mother deer was still alive she tried to teach him how to protect himself from the wolves that were masters of the mountain where they lived then. Little fawn grew all alone avoiding wolves in every possible way until one day when the volcano erupted and when the fire spread from the mountain into the wood where they lived. That day little fawn was already big and the wolves were hunting him through the forest but they couldn't catch him. Right in the moment they were one step close the volcano erupted and suddenly ashes started to fall and the eruption light the big fire in the forest. Wolves couldn't escape the fire at the end but fawn did because he was fast. Later on, the author said how no one wanted to go to that forest anymore because the wolves were still there, petrified but still waiting for someone to come so they can eat him. It was a book for 3th grade if I remember. This is just short content of what is it all about because I remembered it when Lyn mentioned wildfire. I'm off to think of ghost story right now and there's a movie on the TV that I haven't seen long time and I remember it when I was a teenager. *Smile*

Last night here and we are going to have an interesting evening before moving on to our next location which is Mammoth Hot Springs Terrace. We will be leaving after a late breakfast, packing up our stuff so it can be transported for us.
http://www.yellowstonenationalpark.com/mammoth.htm
But we have a special request, and since I am a volunteer guide and getting fired is not an issue... I am going to take him up on his request.
"Well... then what? I think we should have a costume contest. ~Minja~ may beat us all because she has experience with making her own costumes for stuff like this, but I'm still willing to give it a go. Pretty please, Lyn's a sly fox , can we have a costume contest party? I think we should have on where we have to dress up using only materials that you can find in nature. Doesn't that sound fun? I may or may not be trying to see everyone half naked. *Laugh* Charlie ~
Well, are you up to his challenge? It's in your ball park....
"We should totally do this and then have like a campfire where we dance around the fire and OHH we should do like a horror movie costume contest and tell ghost stories or something? The winner should get a prize of some sort. You wanna? Eh? Lyn? You wanna?"
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

If we're gonna have costume contest then we should have judges as well, right? Or, the other option is that we can vote between each other anonymously of course. When I was kiddo I remember going to forest to play and we used to make some kind of costumes. We usually made daisies wreath (I'm sure this is common to everyone here), then we used to find twigs around, those who are little bit more elastic so we can tight them after we string leaves on it. It mostly looked like the skirt from Katy Perry's video 'Roar'   once when she turn into Tarzan lady. Man, Katy Perry is so beautiful, she is almost perfect, she...ok...enough of Katy Perry. *Bigsmile* Well, I did win best Halloween costume back in 2013. when I was Alice in Wonderland because I had a best friend as a judge. *Laugh* And because it was really great costume of course. I still have it in my closet. And here's a picture as a reminder for all those who somehow missed my posts about it in WDC.
Invalid Photo #1038194 Invalid Photo #1038193

That's me with my friend Johnel in the middle- he was judge and Andrea- friend from the crew bar and the other picture is me and other closer competitors. Ok, I'm not that tall. Andrea is one head taller than me but she didn't wear high heels and Johnel is two heads shorter than both of, that's why we look weird. I'm just 5'6" tall, I consider it like normal height. It was fun anyway, I won tablet.
If we accept this challenge does it mean that we have to behave like Adam and Eve? *Rolleyes* Or we can be more fashionable about this? I'm not into dancing around the fire, it reminds me on the tribes where they usually kill someone by putting him on the fire and then dancing around it. Or it reminds me on something like this *Laugh*
[Embed For Use By Upgraded+]

But I can totally see Fivesixer and Charlie ~ doing this kind of dance.mehmehmehmehme*Laugh*
I have found some accessorizes that girls can wear with their dresses or with whatever they come up with. And guys can look like Adam.

This way Charlie would be able to see us half naked but only by being half naked himself. *Bigsmile* However, my version of the dress that I want to wear is little bit different, kind of elegant because I like elegant things in life. I have a huge collection of elegant dresses in my closet and I love every single one of them. This is what I came up with:

I would maybe add some wild flowers, most probably red one since red and green goes together (remember Poison Ivy). Well, lets make guys eat that forbidden fruits and let the party begin. *Bigsmile*

We will be staying put at Indian Creek for another day so we can do some exploring and our tender butts can rest from the ride before we continue on. Today it will be in the high fifties, perfect hiking weather. We are off to Sheepeaters Cliff. There are excellent examples of basalt for those who have an interest in geology. For those who are interested in native wildlife, marmots are native to this area. It is a great hiking experience for all levels, nothing strenuous today.
http://www.nps.gov/media/video/view.htm?id=007BBFE1-155D-451F-6779FB37D3D5BC36
This video will show you what we will studying today on our adventure, lots of great photo opportunities.
When men and women tell tales around evening campfire, a sure sign of success is when the audience says then what...
Here's your opportunity for a then what moment....
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

Now when you mentioned marmots and nature I remember, when I was a kid, there was a cartoon named 'Three Marmots' and it was interesting because in that cartoon they were showing how man don't care about the nature. There was always someone who will leave fire that is not extinguished till the end or other problems that campers are doing when they don't care, such as leaving garbage all over the place. I'm sure we're not one of those because we care about environment. I have irresistible wish to show you one episode of the cartoon so, I've found it in youtube. They don't talk so you wont need any subtitle or something. Here is one episode where the campers trying to take some flowers from National Park and how the animals protected their home:
[Embed For Use By Upgraded+]

So, yeah, for sure we will have interesting exploring of Yellowstone and of course we wont behave like this couple in the cartoon. *Smile*
Then what moment..hmmm. I really have to think about something. It should be like a story, right? I'm not in a mood to make it up so I'll just say something that really happened. Back in October 2005., it feels like it was forever ago a man whose name is Semir Osmanagic got international attention on his statement that one Bosnian town named Visoko (translate-Highills) has something very interesting. Pyramids. Yes, pyramids, like those in Egypt though Semir claimed that those Pyramids in Visoko town are even older. He gave some proofs, he exploited, he brought some big names in World's Association of Archaeologists. Everyone gathered, citizens of the town were excited, tourism grew in the next few months, finally a big day for everyone, we will be world famous..
and then what?

Indian Creek, here we come... We are going by mountain bike to our next camp location. We will be having lunch at Beaver Creek but as you see on the map ( link I've given you ) we have quite a ride ahead of us so we will be leaving the lodge at daylight. What risks do you think we might encounter on our way. Have you ever done a mountain bike adventure before?
http://www.yellowstonenationalpark.com/maps.htm
Indian Creek has vault toilets and no running water. Please make sure you have filled your water bottles. Norb and I have made arrangements to have water delivered to out site but while riding the twenty one miles you will want water. Indian Creek is one of the more primitive camp areas in Yellowstone. What do you think a vault toilet is? What is the difference between a vault and an outhouse?
We will be exploring the Gallatin mountain range with breathtaking views of Electric Peak to the north. Nearby Gardner's Hole offers great wildlife viewing opportunities. This campground offers easy access to great fishing and hiking. The campground is quiet, off the beaten path, with great view of the night sky.
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

Mountain bike? I have troubles with driving a bike on the road. *Laugh* No, seriously, since I was at the ship past 4.years I forgot regular daily things that most of the people in the world are doing. Cooking is also one of them. I made a cake last night, it was fine at the end but man, I used to be very good at it. I didn't have pretty much mountain activities lately, last one was somewhere in elementary school and even this camping trip turned into hoteling so, I'm pretty excited for this adventure. The only risk on this trip that I may encounter is breaking my leg since I didn't ride a bike past thousands years. Oh well, whatever will be, will be. I had some nearly mountain adventures, I totally forgot about it. We did zipplining in Honduras and it was pretty exciting and totally safe.

I have no idea what is vault toilet but I can guess. I can guess also what might happen in the vault toilet without running water. This is just one of the examples.. *Laugh*
Invalid Photo #1041556

Fast & FURious baby!! *Bigsmile* You better keep an eye on that water Fivesixer , we don't want to RUN out of it. I don't think we can catch some rabbits around. Breathtaking view of Electric Peak and night sky sounds like great chance for picnic at night. Lets get those red cubical tablecloths, baskets full of food and drinks and lets eat under the open sky. And don't forget some candles. Or whatever. After dinner I want to go to smoke but with Charlie ~ . I don't want to finish in BEAR's hands somewhere and I know he would save me of his FUR. *Laugh* Well....I hope so. *Rolleyes*

I'm glad everyone is enjoying their time at the lodge, we will be leaving here on Monday morning so if you have laundry, mail to catch up, or shopping to finish... plus it may be helpful if you mail your things home so you don't have to lug them around. We are lucking out tonight 55 degrees... should be a great night outside to watch the rodeo.
Have you ever seen a rodeo? Who gets the worse deal the horse or the rider in your opinion?
Have you ever imagined what a blade of grass feels like on a hot day? What kind of things would the grass be thinking about and why? What if torrential rain started, how would the grass feel and why? Let's see your creativity with this one.
We will be wildlife viewing today on a guided tour with a ranger, another great camera opt in the morning, the afternoon will be yours until we get together for dinner and then the rodeo.
There are more people hurt by bison than by bears each year in Yellowstone. Park regulations state that visitors must stay at least 25 yards away from bison or elk and 100 yards away from bears.
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*


I have never seen rodeo in my life except on the television of course and I'm not really fan of it. I wasn't really watching competitions on the TV, just sometimes you can see it in western movies or something. I know that rodeo is banned in UK and Netherlands placing restrictions on certain practices. Various competitions constitute animal cruelty. So, yeah, I can go with you guys but I can't guarantee I will enjoy in it.
When you mentioned grass I instantly remembered song by Sting Fields of Gold  . This song and this filed of gold reminds me on childhood as well. When the war in my country started back in 1992. people barely had food to eat. In my country bread is the most important food (something like rice in Asia) and people here almost never have meals that don't contain bread on the table. It's a tradition. So, I was 7. years old when the war started and by the time it's finished, 1995, I was 10. and years that came after war were even harder. My grandparents lived in a country side and they had crops of different vegetables as well as huge field of wheat. We, as a kids, used to help our parents and grandparents to harvest wheat so we can have wheat bread after the process of grinding. Those were really tough years for everyone because some people who didn't have food used to steel from the others so, my grandfather sometimes had to go in patrol of the field at night because thieves usually were stealing that time.
However, what would grass think on one hot summer day? I really have no idea. I only know that grass is as living being and has feelings as well. When it's hot season she will dry without water, under the snow cover she can't grow, if you don't talk with your plants they'll kill you. *Bigsmile* Have you ever thought of it before? My mom keep some plants in the house, those who can survive room temperature and if you water them all the time and if you talk to them they look more pretty. I look at them as a pets. You have to be very careful with greens trust me. Otherwise you will finish like all these people in The Happening  . Ok, you have to see The Happening to know what I'm talking about.

There is a power in the world that it's happening beyond human understanding. After I saw the movie I pay full attention to my plants in the house and also outside. Sometimes I'm afraid to step on it in the park afraid that I will be hurt somehow. I know it's insane but I can't help myself. I don't have any phobia of it, not at all, I just avoid to step on the grass where it can be avoided. The actor Mark Wahlberg said that this is the worse movie he ever had to film. His reaction on the scenario was: Fucking plants, dude...just..fucking plants. Very nice thriller story that has a good point for the mankind.

Halfway through the month happily sleeping in a real bed *Facepalm*, enjoying the lodge's menu selections too! It will be a quiet evening in the lodge because of the thunder storms this evening. At least, we are dry!
Tomorrow, we are going to the museum of the Park Ranger, a bookstore, Norris Geyser Basin and Steamboat Geyser on horseback, those that would rather ride in the wagon can because there will be several going. I suggest your cameras and comfy clothes. We will be having a bag lunch prepared for us by the lodge, If we have time we will be checking out Artist Paint Pots, too! What did you like best?
The dog days of summer got the nickname because of Sirius, the dog star which rose and fell with the sun during the hottest days. What nickname do you have for the hottest day? Is there a nickname native to where you live? What activities do you avoid during this time?
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*


It would be interesting to see Artist's Paintpots. I've never seen anything similar in my life. Mother nature sure may surprise. To be honest I had to google this to check what is it exactly about. I don't know what would I like the most. I guess everything about it. For now, things that I love the most is that half of our camping trip we spent sleeping in the Lodge *Laugh* and not outside in some forest in sleeping bags. I like our dinners, too. Once when we get to the bookstore I'm sure everyone will spend some money here, souvenirs and all. I don't know, I guess I would buy some book about Yellowstone, encyclopedia for sure. I remember my trip to Port Arthur, Tasmania   and visiting some souvenir store where they had books as well. I wont talk about it too much since I have written a long blog entry on this theme long time ago and it's in my other blog. For those who read it you could notice that I posted video of my friend John and I visiting Port Arthur. Long story short, I bought a book not for myself but for someone else. That someone couldn't go outside that day and apparently we would never go back to Port Arthur after that day anymore because the ship would take another route and we would sale only along New Caledonia. However, 'cause we were in some kind of fight I wanted to show care so I thought this encyclopedia about Tasmania will help and I wrote a short message with meaning in it, something like: You couldn't experience Tasmania till its fullness so I brought it to you. Life is a journey, however, and not a destination and my journey today wasn't interesting in the way it would be if you were there. I can't remember exactly the words but it was something like this. I don't know if he threw the book for the reason it will remind him of me, but I payed $80 for it and it was very rich with pictures and informations in it.
So, yeah, I think for sure everyone would head to bookstore in Yellowstone. This time I will buy everything just for myself. *Smile*
We have hot summer days and we always say it's hot that much that you can cook the egg at the pavement in front of the house. Nothing special. I have seen some pictures of people literally cooking the eggs on the pavement just to look funny. I think this joke works in every part of the world. I don't go outside much during the day when it's too hot. Summers here may be too hot and dry that if you expose yourself longer than 2. hours in the worst period of the day (from 10a.m.-4p.m) you can get sunstroke very fast. So, I usually don't do any activities except drinking water and doing stuff inside house if I'm not at the pool or at the lake. I'm not used to this clime that we have here since last four years I spent in tropical clime and got used to it very fast that now I don't feel pretty good here. In the morning I have headaches and dizziness and usually I can't eat. It's killing me seriously since I'm not in good health because I'm anemic and I always miss iron in my blood. I don't drink any medicine for it except vitamins and I try to eat healthy food but while we have this weather I'm almost never hungry so I eat once or twice a day. My breakfast is always in the afternoon and after that I always eat something stupid that will kill the appetite for later meals.

It's another beautiful night in Yellowstone in the mid 40's Fahrenheit and we are going to see a cowboy show at the amphitheater by Canyon Lodge. Dinner at the lodge with real tables and chairs, woohoo. My back was so ready, what about yours.
Tomorrow a guide from Yellowstone is taking us to Upper and Lower Falls, bring your camera, lots of great photo opportunities. We will be picnicking there for lunch and swimming in the pools under the falls. It is going to be in the mid 80's, perfect for water activities. We are staying at the lodge until Monday. Post office, laundry, showers and nightly entertainment.
Over lunch in this amazing setting and the delicious food from the lodge I thought I would pick your brains, you know how I am about questions... what do you think are the differences in food eaten in the summer time around the world? Share with us something specific from where you live? Is it easy to make or difficult? What about family traditions, do you have certain foods that only appear in the summer months?
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

*Bootl**Bootr* These boots are made for walkin', that's just what they'll do, one of these days these boots are gonna walk...all...over...you. *Laugh* Uhmmm...what kind of cowboy show we're gonna see? I wish, only for ladies and if guys want to join they can of course( ahmmm Charlie ~ -because we talked about this movie the other night}, and it will be something like this  . Matt Boomer is so hot here. *Bigsmile* I hope this is Lyn's a sly fox 's secret. She says we're gonna see the cowboy show in amphitheater but what she really think is we're gonna go to see some 'Magic Mike' dance. *Laugh* This is the best camping experience I ever had even though it's just illusion. Can we stay in a Lodge forever?
You wouldn't believe when I tell you but my favorite summer food ever is corn on the stick  . I remember when I was a kid we used to do this every night when it's corn season. Our parents light the fire and all kids from the neighborhood gather and we're having corn on a stick. Those are such a sweet memories that I still have. Later on we all smell like smoked prosciutto but it was fun though.
Other than that pudding fruit salad   is something unavoidable as well as nutella pancakes  . Now, let me tell you the difference between american style pancakes   and those that we're preparing here (the first picture). American pancakes are more fat than those we prepare. Ours are very thin just for the reason you can do whatever you want with them, you can roll them with fudge, cream, nutella, fruit, whatever, inside, you can make different kind of shapes. The only purpose of thin pancakes is that you can fill them up until you start to throw up for its sweetness once when you start to eat them. This is just one more sinful pleasure. *Laugh* It's not hard to prepare it. I've found recipe for those interested  . And now I'm hungry. And now I wanna see 'Magic Mike' again. Damn you blog entry *Laugh**Laugh*

http://earthsky.org/tonight/watch-these-stars-while-watching-the-perseids?utm_so...

Perseid Meteor Shower peaks tonight, it is going to be a spectacular night to watch the sky with no light pollution. We really are in for a great show especially at 2:00am, its going to be a short night sleeping, we'll rest tomorrow once we arrive at Canyon Village.
You'll find this campground close to the breathtaking Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone near the center of the park. Offers stores, restaurants, pay showers, a coin laundry and a sanitary dump station, but no utility hookups. No camp cooking tonight, we are going to try one of the restaurants.
What did you see? How did it make you feel? There are lots of videos out there to see this, I suggest you check it out. I posted two links but there are many others.
If you feel inclined compose a poem to share with us at dinner tonight.
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*

Oh, we're on camping on Perseids' night. How awesome. *Starstruck* This reminds me at the times when we go outside for living and not just sitting at the computer. Yeah, I know NASA has those live channels from where you can see shooting stars but where's romantic in it? If you didn't go out, above the town and if you didn't lay down on the ground facing sky on the hot summer night then you didn't live. Otherwise you'll just look like this: *Laugh*
Invalid Photo #1041460

Ohh, no one is cooking tonight, how exciting. I may even do some laundry before dinner. It would be nice to have clean clothes for the restaurant. *Bigsmile* After dinner we all agreed that no one will stay in the Lodge tonight, we're all gonna spend the night outside around the fire just relaxing and maybe some singing while the stars are falling. I don't know, I've heard Fivesixer is a great singer! And I know that Prosperous Snow celebrating will recite her poetry that she wrote that night about shooting stars. *Smile* Anyone play guitar?? No?? Uhmm.. ok..
While Lyn's a sly fox mentioned that we could do some poetry on the theme of perseids tonight I remembered the story that I reviewed long ago here in WDC. Wait, I'll find it. Here it is:

While attending a birthday party, a family secret is revealed
#1951652 by Nixie

It's about a girl whose parents are stars but they live on Earth. It's pretty interesting story, check it out. I didn't write any poem on today's prompt, I know Neva did, I read it. I remember also, when I was a child, we had this story to do at school and the teacher gave us Oscar Wild-The Star-Child  . I remember how impressed I was by it and I think I even fell in love with this Star-Child. *Laugh* Some of you maybe know what is it all about, however that link there is the full story that I found on the internet so you can read it if interesting. On the side note our city portal posted a video about how sky looked above(out of) my city Tuzla(that place is called 'Slana Banja' and it's above city where people usually go for camping or relaxing in the nature) last night. Check it out, it's nice, 2.min. video.

Woohoo, Mother Nature must have been a card player at one point... it's 55 degrees Fahrenheit 13 degrees Celsius. The fire feels good... and the spade game between ANN Counselor, Lesbian & Happy and Lyn's a sly fox against Charlie ~ and Cinn is close. Everyone is placing bets... Conversation around the fire…what is the strangest thing you’ve ever seen happen during the summer? Why was it so weird? What might other people have thought about what you saw?
In the morning, we are off to see Mud Volcanoes at Lake Village and Bridge Bay. We'll be setting up camp there, need volunteers to fish for trout in the river there. If anyone is interested there is a fishing contest going on, prizes are 1000.00 for the largest catch of the day.
*Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo**Bulletg**Leafo*


Bets are falling like in the rap battle in Eminem's movie 8.Mile  . Who's gonna win? I placed my bet for Kylie and Charlie, ya'll know you can't against them when they unite their powers. *Bigsmile* Now when I mentioned, it would be nice if we have some kind of lyrics battle in Writing.Com that goes live--you write lyrics in front of the people, you have 1.minute to think of what you're gonna say. Something similar to the rap battle from Eminem's movie  . Without swearing and spitting. An idea for the contest? *Idea* Maybe. I so adore Eminem. He is my favorite lyricist of all times. I'm not into rap that much but I so love his music. Here you can check explanation of how he is doing rhymes for his songs. On the side that what he is rapping about but this is something that we call RHYME SCHEME. Check this video out  . I know that there's different kind of rhymes and poetry but within his job, which is rapping, rhyme is the most important part of songs. Please check that video, it's impressive.
Yo, yo, yo those who are gathered 'round the fire, talking about strangest thing they saw during summer, I have something that will leave you completely yawn drops. Now, I don't exactly remember when and where this happened, all I know that it happened. Madness, though it would be nice to camp with them, completely relaxed. Can you imagine to talk about some serious themes with any of them? *Happycry**Laugh* I think they committed a suicide after this. And now, DJ, spin that shit  . *Laugh*

I cannot wait to go to see volcanoes but I'm not looking forward to do fishing again. I suggest Fivesixer to do it. Somehow I have a feeling he will get that $1000 prize. What would we do if it happens? And Norb will cook again. We forgot that he is chef on our camping trip. Dragon is hiding will help him since she gave some headache to few women by disappearing with Scooby Doo. *Bigsmile*

We are supposed to pull up camp and move onto Lake Village and Bridge Bay today but we have an several injured campers Princess Megan Rose 22 Years , BlueMoon and we have a missing teenager Dragon is hiding .
Instead of moving on we are going to work with the authorities to find Miss Dragon in the morning. This evening to keep our mind off all that is happening around us we are going to have a card playing night around a roaring fire. (There was a camper killed by a grizzly bear in Yellowstone, the bear was captured so we are safe so long as we use camp safety). Those of you that would like time to write home, there is a postal pickup service, plus I was told Xanterra Parks & Resorts has an internet hub and phone center if you want to use it for a fee. Please take a buddy, no wandering alone.
Share with us your card game experiences, what games do you play?
Enlighten us on your thoughts about our missing Miss Dragon.
And finally since we are here for another day how about some good old baked beans in a hole and hot dogs. See the video so you know what I mean about in the hole.

Has anyone done this before with their families? Volunteers?
Share with us what you chose to do while we stayed another night in Grant Village.

Did you just mentioned FREE WiFi?? *Shock* O EM GEE!! Of course I'll do WiFi, there's nothing better than free WiFi. Ok..there is... free WiFi in the middle of national park is even better. I'll go alone anyway. I lost my buddy while we were talking last night. He just...don't want to be my buddy anymore. In the meanwhile I'll use the opportunity to send some postcards to my friends from "The Snail Mail Group and hope they're jealous at all of us having great time with camping 'round Yellowstone.
Dragon is hiding is with Scooby Doo, I'm glad for her, it means she's having great time and she is not completely lost. And we don't need to spend our time with the authorities. We will just enjoy in playing cards, poker to be precise. Now, let me ask, I bet you all know how to play poker, right? And you know that we have to invest something while we're playing. We saw that juice competition wasn't the best solution, at least for me 'cause I've got vitamin shock, so we have to find some other type of fun investments. I'll let you decide. *Devil* I know, why don't we play poker and whoever is loser have to cook and clean for us tonight?
On the side note, I remember playing some black jack and slot in Nassau, Bahamas two years ago. I won $250 and loosing only $5 on slot while friend of mine, Michael- he is a dealer in casino at the ship, lost $1500 on black jack and russian rulet. The worse part is that was his last cruise that contract and that money was to pay his own ticket home. I just grabbed his hand and took him out of there, gave him mine $250 and told him we'll never go back there again. He borrowed some more money from his friends so he can pay the flight ticket. Well, I met him one more time while cruising in Alaska and we always talk about that day and we're laughing. He is awesome person and friend. I miss his jokes and I miss our time spent together. *Smile*
Megan says we'll have gas party tonight. I'm sorry to say that but I'm not gonna participate because I don't eat beans at all. The one that they cook in a hole like in the video I never tried, I'll just stick to hot-dogs, cold-cats or anything else that looser will prepare for all of us.
