Theodore Roosevelt Nat'l Park, South end July 27

Today is our last day here. We have really enjoyed the beauty and colors in these beautiful badlands. The vistas are extroadinary. The views cannot be captured by picture. We saw wild horses in the street while we were driving the 35 mi. loop. Hundreds of prairie dogs. The only bison we saw was in the North end. Oh, I forgot to tell you about the bison. Sunday night we were watching T.V. and we heard loud snorting. We looked out our door and we saw a herd of huge bison walk right past our door. They were inches from us. What a sight! They are magnificent, strong animals with a charm of their own. That was exciting.
So, thank you President Roosevelt for signing The Antiquities Act for the preservation of our
parks and forests. You have made a huge contribution for the preservation of our beautiful lands and forests.

  1. Hi guys!!! Sounds like you are having tons of fun!! I leave for San Diego August 23rd and we are driving up to the Redwoods with our friend Will who is living around San Diego now. We'll probably stay in Sacramento that day and get to the Redwoods on the 25th. Where do you think you'll be around then?
