Busy is the best word for Sept and Oct. Labor day I flew to meet Vic at Laguardia airport and from there we flew together to Boston. We spent the weekend on the Cape visiting my cousins and attending vic’s niece’s wedding. We saw the ocean, ate sea food and had a wonderful time.
Back in CO it was time for a road trip. My good friend Dianna had never been to Yellowstone, so off we went. First night was Cody, WY where we took a tour to watch wild horses. We watched stallions sparring. What a sight!

Yellowstone showed its treasures. We saw grizzly, ate lunch in a bison jam while bulls pushed and battled around us. We saw moose, elk and deer. 
We watched waterfalls and geysers. Joining us were artist friends Wes and Rachelle Seigrist. We shared a cabin in Colter Bay and spent a few days exploring both Yellowstone and the Tetons. One of my favorite sightings was 
the otters playing.We had great bird encounters including a dipper who preened carefully in 
front of us before wading into the running wat

The end of the trip was in Jackson where we attended the Miniatures and More Art Show and Sale at the National Wildlife Art Museum. Both Rachelle and I were in the show. The receptions were wonderful. We spent time catching up with our artist friends and meeting new people.Here Alice and Mark Eberhard, me, my friend Dianna (standing) and Rachelle.We played tourist in

Jackson, walking around the galleries and eating great food. Vic took a quick weekend so we could go up to Rocky Mountain Park to watch the elk bugle and see the changing Aspen leaves.
In October I was a featured artist at the Masters Gallery of Loveland. We had a lovely reception. Wes and Rachelle came into town and stayed with artist friend Diane Mason and her husband Bob. We explored Rocky Mountain Park and were treated to a wonderful big horn sheep encounter.
Wes and Rachelle were treated to a tour of Art Castings foundry where both Diane and I put our work through. We walked through Benson Park to see the sculptures there. 
We snuck in a quick visit to the Denver Zoo on the way to the opening of the SAA members show at the Wildlife Experience in Parker, CO. The reception in Parker was amazing! A large number of members showed up for the weekend. The show is a beautiful show in a very special venue.

We were blessed with good weather for the journey. The first night we stayed with artist friend Terry Donahue and his family. He lives in Omaha, the perfect distance for our first stop. As we went further East we were treated to an amazing display of fall colors. Magic was thrilled to be back with her "sister" Tinker. Tinker wasn’t so sure.
