For a nature-lover and wildlife enthusiast, each day in Yellowstone is another magic carpet ride.
The experience of my second week here has been just as wondrous as the first. I can barely keep up with the processing of the thousands of images I take, but here are a handful.

Now I see the secret of making the best person: it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.

Oh John, what a place you’re in, the wilds headed into the short explosive summer on spectacular land. It’s so stunning. I feel as if I’m getting a visit myself through these unusual photographs you take. The owl’s incredible, the deer the fox the everybody. Have a splendid time of it, looks like you are.

Thanks, Barbara. You’re so right about the “short explosive summer.” It hit 99 degrees two days in a row out here. But the bears and the bison are desperately fattening up and cars still carry snow chains in their trunks.
