First Impressions of West Yellowstone

 

Drew and our friend Bubble the buffalo enjoying a public playground.
 

Bubble arrived in town about a week before we did and in a place as small in size as West Yellowstone, you tend to see the same people over and over again; we cross paths with Bubble on a regular basis. 
 

Sitting behind the front desk of a hotel can be a bit boring at times, but usually you can read or figure out things to do that help develop you as a human being and make the time go by faster.  If one of these things happens to be prank calling other hotel front desks in an array of foreign accents, we would caution against calling the Ho-Hum Motel.  They seemed either 1: to have very low tolerance for Asian callers, or 2: to have a great deal of discernment from an extensive experience of being the victim of everyone's jokes.

 

Jake was exhibiting a frustration many of us have been feeling as of late and that is one of wishing we could spend less time doing menial tasks and more time in the National Park.  
 

West Yellowstone has very prominent Meth scene and until a year ago this Dairy Queen served as a place to buy Blizzards or to buy the owner's drugs.

 

Tina (our hotel job boss)
has told us that we will learn something new everyday.  When the rains came we learned that if you don't have flashing as part of your roofwork, water makes its way down on YOUR side of the window.
