Short and Sweet

The library is closing in 9 min. so I'll do my best.

Work is going fine. A bit mondane at times but I'm making some money as is Jason. The last couple of weeks have just been busy working and then coming home and working at home. Sunday we went up the north Fork up to the entrance of Yellowstone called Pahaska. We took our horses to church, (yes to church) and then embarked on our horse adventure. We took 2 friends and their horses and headed into the hills for a couple of miles. The weather was superb. There was so much water running down the valley into the river, it was just beautiful to see so many waterfalls in a very dry land. Once we hit our turn around place, we grazed the horses and Jason went looking for Grizzly bears. Yes, he wanted to find one. Everytime he is with me, we never see them. The prayers of a righteous woman are heard! I think that's how that goes. Anyways, I didn't pray too hard that day because not more than 75-100 yards away, there was a big boy! Jason was excited and called us over only I couldn't move because my heart was in my throat! I froze but stayed calm. I could see him when he moved over the fallen logs. It was time to go. Jason was thankful but wanted to see more. On the way out, I spotted one about 600 yrds away across the river. A great distance for me. He was even bigger. Jason was excited but prayed for more on the way home. He wanted to see a sow and cubs. As we loaded the trailer and hit the open road, there were the typical line of tourists hugging the guard rail. There, across the river along the hillside, was a sow and a year or 2 old cub trailing behind here. Yea God! Jason was stoked that God, His Daddy on Father's day, showed him His greatness and fulfilled his wishes. What an awesome Daddy we've got!

Must go, my minutes are up. Until next time...

Hey... good to see a post. Was wondering what you guys were up to. Sounds like you are busy...

Jason sounds a bit like Phil. And isn't it crazy that whenever I go out with Phil we don't see any animals either? I'm glad things worked out for Jason this time!
Glad to hear that you are doing well and enjoying the beautiful scenery you have there.
