Is that a bear up there????

We woke up bright and early this morning. Well, actually, it wasn't bright at all, it was still dark. We had to get on the road so we could be home for Oby's high school football coaching. We drove through Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. It was cool seeing the steam in the sunrise. We saw baby buffalo, hawks, eagles, a coyote, elk, deer, the works. But I have never seen a bear in the wild, so we were really hoping to see one. By the time we got almost through the park, I had given up, and thought we were more likely to see a bear earlier in the morning and at the other end, so I thought we'd missed our chance. Well I was wrong! We saw a baby bear up in a tree taking a nap and his mom was napping at the bottom of a neighboring tree. The picture is pathetic, but in person it was very cool! Chloe loved Old Faithful and being in the park. She was such a happy girl! I, however, was not such a happy girl after riding in a car for ten hours. But it was worth it because we got Oby back in time for practice and we really did have a great little trip! I highly recommend a visit to Yellowstone in the spring - those baby buffalo are so dang cute!
