Blogging in nature





















As we sat in the Lake Lodge in the Grand Tetons borrowing internet and blogging the day before yesterday, we noticed the huge herd of Elk running fast in the field which is very unusual. We didn't have any scope or binoculars but I did snap a quick picture. (above)
The other folks there could saw a big Grizzly Bear run out of the bushes and grab a baby elk and kill it and drag it back in the bushes. Scary stuff. Once again we realized that the parks we are visiting; Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Glacier are wild places. It's not a Mutual Of Omahas Wild Kingdom where the prey gets away every time. It was particularly crazy for the kids watching. (well everyone)










After the excitement of this raw nature somehow the horror ws broken up when the sun broke through the clouds gave us some amazing views of the Grand Tetons.

(any haze in these pictures comes from the fires in California - which is also amazing)
