09/15/13 ON 09/09 DENIS SAW A NEW BISON CALF ON HIS TRAVELS, A VERY LATE BIRTH. A CAMPER HAD A LARGE ELK ANTLER RACK IN HIS PICK-UP AND WAS TOLD HE COULD NOT TAKE IT. THE RANGER LEFT IT AT JUDY’S SITE FOR PEOPLE TO SEE. I TOOK A PICTURE OF DENIS AND RAY HOLDING IT UP. WE WENT TO UNDINE FALLS ON 09/10, ACROSS THE GORGE FROM THE FALLS THERE IS A SKELATIN OF WHAT WE THINK IS A BISON.THIS HAS BEEN A VERY SAD WEEK FOR US. MAISIE HAD BEEN SICK SINCE LAST THURSDAY, WE TOOK HER TO THE VET IN LIVINGSTON ON 09/10 AND THEY TREATED HER FOR A GASTROINTESTINAL VIRUS, BY 09/11 SHE WAS WORSE, I TOOK HER BACK TO THE VET AND SHE WAS PRETTY MUCH GONE BY THE TIME I GOT THERE. SHE WAS IN A LOT OF PAIN AND HAD BLOOD IN HER STOOL, I DECIDED IT WOULD BE BEST TO PUT HER DOWN. WE SURE ARE GOING TO MISS HER. JUDY, RAY AND HAYDEN LEFT ON 09/12 FOR CHICAGO, WE SURE HAD A LOT OF FUN WITH JUDY AND HAYDEN DURING THE SEASON AND WITH RAY THE WEEK HE WAS HERE. THE DEER BUCK WAS RIGHT NEXT TO/BEHIND OUR MOTOR HOME, IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE HIS ANTLERS GREW THAT MUCH SINCE WE HAVE BEEN HERE, HE WILL SHED THEM IN EARLY SPRING AND START ALL OVER NEXT YEAR. 09/14 DENIS WORKED SO I RODE ALONG WITH HIM. WE DROVE TO THE EAST ENTRANCE SO I COULD GET A PICTURE OF THE SIGN. THERE WAS A GRIZZLEY IN THE VALLEY AND WE GOT SOME GOOD PICTURES OF HER. WE WENT TO LAMAR VALLEY EARLY IN THE MORNING TO SEE IF THE MAMA GRIZZLEY AND THE 3 CUBS WERE OUT AND ABOUT, NO SUCH LUCK, WE ARE GOING TO GO OUT EVERY MORNING UNTIL WE LEAVE, MAYBE WE WILL SEE THEM. ONE OF OUR CUSTOMERS SAID THEY SAW THEM ON 09/13, MAYBE WE WILL GET LUCKY. WE DID SEE A BLACK BEAR IN THE CONSTRUCTION AREA. ALL SEASON DENIS HAS SAID, HE WOULD LIKE TO BE THE FIRST ON THE SCENE OF THE START OF AN ANIMAL JAM, HE FINALLY GOT HIS WISH. WE WENT OUT TO LAMAR VALLEY AGAIN THIS MORNING AT 6 O’CLOCK, DIDN’T SEE THE MAMA AND CUBS. WERE’RE GOING TO ASK RANGER TIM IF HE WILL KEEP AND EYE OUT FOR HER AND THE CUBS AND GET A PICTURE AND E-MAIL IT TO US. THREE MORE WORKING DAYS FOR ME AND MY SEASON WILL BE OVER, I DON’T WANT IT TO END, LOOKING FORWARD TO COMING BACK NEXT YEAR.
