“Another morning brings another sunrise, I can see it all through your eyes!!” And then this afternoon we had a very short rain – you can see raindrops on the hollyhocks if you look closely.  We don’t know where these beautiful dark hollyhocks came from.  We  didn’t have any of these on historic Moore’s farm [...]

We had an absolutely beautiful sunset last night.

Grandma Dora, the original explorer, had surgery on Thursday and is home from the hospital and everything went well.  Now she is anxious to get back down to the Park and see how all of the baby animals have grown.  Especially this family of pronghorns.  They didn’t mind Grandma Dora taking their picture as long [...]

We are so blessed to have wonderful family and friends!!  Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers for Dora during her surgery and now her recovery.

How quickly the weather changes.  It seemed like we were going to have an early fall, but summer has returned.  It is hot and dry and we have a lot of lightning caused grass fires across the state.  The extremely wet winter we had was a mixed blessing – although it helped with the drought [...]

The smoke from the grass fires has cleared this morning and the day dawns cool (46 degrees) and bright!!  And, yes, the trees here are starting to change colors although this is a picture from last fall.  Won’t be long before we see the colors!

These are a few of our favorite things!!  And, this seems appropriate since Yellowstone National Park employees celebrate Christmas on August 25th before too many of them finish their summer jobs and return home to work or go to school.

Great Grandmother Carolyn Moore, for whom our granddaughter Carolyn was named, is loved by all.  And, many people helped her celebrate her 93rd birthday on August 19th.  Hope she has many, many more!!

“The bear went over the mountain, the bear went over the mountain, to see what he could see.” And like the bear, we are going over the mountain today – but to Bozeman to see what we can see!!

Happy Early 93rd Birthday tomorrow, Mom.  I think when you get to be 93 you should celebrate your birthday every single day.  Love you!!
