Right Now


It's almost 1:00 in the morning / at night. It's late, I'm getting tired, so I'll have to call it for the night. Sisay has been sleeping in the tent since ~8:47, no Dinner or nothing. He is such a 'Haps"sh'... Andi joined him around 11:00 pm, after we finished our dinner, and I'm sitting here, in this nice cozy hotel, writing these words, before going back to the campsite and the frigging temperatures outside.

We're @ Yellowstone, one of the most beautiful and amazing places, not just in the US, but in the world, in my opinion. Words can not & will not describe the awesomeness and wonder of this place, so I won't even try. Maybe you'll get a fraction of it from the pictures. It something one need to view with ones own eyes.

But I will tell you this - today was May 22. Now it's the beginning of Friday, May 23, & Memorial Day Weekend, here in the US. The official "marker" for the start of summer... - We drove in to the park at the early afternoon. It was snowing. Not just snowing - it was coming down, blowing, and what not! The amount of snow and ice all over the place is ridicules. Snow packed on the side of the roads, after the plowers came through, was in some places over 7 ft (2 m) high! It was more of a winter day than we've experienced in Virginia all winter... Unbelievable!!

OK, it's really late. I'm out of here. You all have a great weekend & a Shabat Shalom,

Avi
