Yesterday was a B-E-A-UTIFUL day!  It was the first sunny day we have had since I have been back.  But you know what...it definitely makes up for the 6 rainy, and yucky days we had before.  All the animals were out and about.  Snickers had his house cleaned out and even enjoyed some oranges and cauliflower afterwards.

 The moose calves were sunbathing all day.  You can see Jack laying in the back right with Gilly.  Nelson was walking around before settling down with the other 2 moose. 

 The bears even made an appearance!  Joe Boxer and Patron were peaking out of there dens when they heard us calling for wiley to come out.  Eventually, we had to walk away because they were coming over to the fence to inspect the food we had. 

 We walked onto the top of Balck Bear mountain to get a last few glimpses of our sunny day just before the sun went behind the mountain.  The walk up was a very interesting climb considering the entire mountain was basically an ice rink!







So we thought we would make it easier by sliding back down the mountain/hill. 

 We ended ou day by driving about 15 miles to the Turnagain Pass.  The turnagain pass is a very popular place for cross country skiers and snow machiners.  There is a rule, to keep it safer, that the snow machiners are only allowed on the right side of the road; while the cross country skiers are only allowed on the left.  You can see that this picture is the side that the snow machiners use. 

Sort of a short blog tonight on account of I am very tired after a long day of work.  I will post a blog tomorrow talking about the interesting events that went on today.   I would talk about that right now but I really have to go to the bathroom.  So that means I have to walk all the way back to the bunkhouse since the water is turned off here at the giftstore.  Stay tuned for tomorrow's blog......How to give a moose a manicure.

Goodnight Lower 48,
