Yellowstone 2004. Good news! Great geysers and waterfalls are still there. Everyone who went came back. All vehicles made it with only minor problems. Softball tournament cancelled due to lack of time. Great time at Bar D Chuckwagon show. Troop 80 cheered the loudest. Ghost Chickens may make an appearance in Durango. Sean Davis received Bone Award from the Greenbar for favorite first year adult. Bryan Sena was named Outstanding Camper. Raft trip went well. Saw lots of buffalo and elk. Saw one grizzly bear. Talked to lots of police. Spent lots of money in REI and other places. Missed mudslide which closed the East Entrance. Drove 5 hours on detour. Lots of rain. Can’t wait to go again.
