Deuxième Interlude

Boiling River meets Gardner River
Et il s'agit là d'un mariage parfait ! Une fois cet endroit découvert, m'autant t'dire que nous ne pouvions plus nous en passer. Attention, ne marche que si vous êtes dans les deux rivières à la fois. Ya un cerf qui a essayé, le malheureux.
And it's the best match in the universe! The minute we found this there was no coming back. Or more accurately, there was many coming back and forth to this place the 3 days we were lodging nearby. Caution: works only if you are staying in both rivers. One elk DID try otherwise, poor fellow.






Bonus
Mais attention ! Notre journée était loin d'être finie. Déjà on avait une carte de nameday à écrire à un de nos frères. Ensuite, ceci est arrivé :
But wait! Our day was far from over. First we had a nameday card to write to one of my brothers. And then, this happened:




Moralité
Hirsute, échevelé, Yellowstone vous recrache comme elle le fait quotidiennement de ses tripes. Vous retrouvez d'abord un feu rouge, puis des rues bien carrées, puis des commerces superflus. Vous vous farcissez les 440 miles qui vous séparent de Salt Lake, saluant au passage ce brave uncle Monsanto qui seul habite des étendues autrement désertes.

The first sign is a red light, then neat and square residential areas, then some useless shops. 440 miles stand between you and Salt Lake City, inhabited by Uncle Monsanto — don't forget to say hi while you're passing by. At more than 40 mph, you're driving so fast you almost miss that fake Yellowstone zoo where you could see that goddamn bear who never bothered to show, not even to steal your convenience store burrito. Yet you shelled tons of money on these alert systems, didn't you? For the last time you'll get to admire the young, young brides at Salt Lake cathedral (it can be emotional but just avoid dropping a tissue with your adn if you're concerned with your ancestors post-mortem religious beliefs). And never forget, at any rate:
