The Visit With My In Laws Thus Far

[Shana]

:thumbsup Going good!!

They arrived on Friday night. Saturday we took them up to Rocky Mountain National Park (per their request) for some sightseeing and we ran into a crapoad of ELK. Yes, elk :giggle I would like to share the only photos that I have processed thus far.

Oh no, Spiffy -- don't you worry -- I have a whole bunch more to bore you with later on next week :lmao

Great pics! Please tell me that you are getting those elk pics from the car. They seem nice but they can get ornery and you are getting close to the rut.

It looks like you all are having fun!

It looks like you all are having fun!We are :D Yah, from the window. See.... so we got up there right? And there was a huuuuuuge line of cars and it's like bumper to bumper traffic and we are like, what is up with that?

As we get closer to the loggerjam, we see that the fields are PACKED OUT with Elk, and people have stopped their cars and are actually walking on the roads (leaving their kids in the car and the car running :rolleyes) to take pictures.

But yeah. We took these from the relative safety of our car.

I have to check back later...stupid spam filter here at school won't let me look at facebook photos :(

[Jo]

LOL Shana...it sounds like the idiots from Yellowstone came down to your neck of the woods. Dave and I have tons of pictures of people being stupid around wild animals from our trip.:giggle

Jo, that's exactly what happens. "Look at the cute kitty cat!" No, genius- that's a mountain lion and it WILL kill you LOL

I can't see facebook photos at work, but I'm so glad you are enjoying your ILs.
