A group of Yellowstone tourists thought they had seen all the national park had to offer. They spent the day Saturday, March 5, in the park and saw wolves, bears, elk, golden eagles and more, Carl Kemp, a person on the tour, said on YouTube. “We turned around to make our way back, when I saw what I thought was a black bear running down the road,” Kemp said. “As soon as it turned, we realized we were in the middle of a once in a lifetime experience.”

Without looking at the story, I’ll bet it was a Meerkat.

Dang it.

A stinky old wolverine.

Those are a dime a dozen in Palo Alto.

I went to Yellowstone once and couldn’t stand all the stupid tourists. The best was a group of them walking up to within 50 feet of a Moose Cow to get pictures. My wife and I were on a motorcycle so I didn’t hang around to see the fun.

Right on the edge.

If it went a little too far this way, it would be inside.

If it went a little too far that way, it would be outside.

It’s just sitting there on the edge like a perplexed bisexual.

I spent last summer with my uncle hunting wolverines up in Alaska. Shot about 50 of them with a freakin’ 12 gauge.

I was close.

For Wolverines, Meerkats are like that uncle from New Jersey who always brings his pet cat to the family reunions.

Yellowstone is where I discovered that I needed to get serious about cataract surgery. Dang park needs street lights. We stayed at three different lodges, not because we especially wanted to but because we were late making reservations and had to stitch together available rooms. Which is why we got caught by nightfall while out on the road ... and the place gets pretty darned dark out in the boonies. I somehow managed not to drive off a cliff, but I was creeping, and when a herd of buffalo decided to wander across the road, I.Did.Not.See.Them.Coming. Suddenly there were buffalo surrounding the car, about two feet away.

I went to visit the eye doc when I got back. I live in the city and night vision was never a problem in D.C.

National parks are good for discovering this sort of thing.
