I quit my job blowing leaves










I have no idea how to edit this properly so I will just talk now. The last couple weeks have been amazing. Yellowstone is ridiculous. Very crowded but a short hike off the road and you feel like you have the place to yourself. I was very impressed with Grand Teton NP. It rained/hailed all 5 days that I stayed in those parks but it will still beautiful. Lots of people from all around the world. I sat around a fire with a couple guys from New York and New Jersey  and they were completely blown away by everything they had seen. Dinosaur National Monument was next and it was also amazing. Touched 150 million year old dinosaur bones and saw petroglyphs. My last night there, I was overcome by loneliness and decided to book a cheap room somewhere (shower needed too).
 Got way more than I bargained for in Delta, CO. Some locals "adopted" me and took me to the town's first ever drag show. What an insane night. Met some great people. I was very impressed with the area and the town in particular. Black Canyon of the Gunnison was my next stop and I was once again blown away. Last night I camped at about 11,000 feet near the town of Silverton, CO and woke up to lots of wet, heavy snow.
I feel more relaxed than I can ever remember being and I need to figure out how to make this my regular state of being.
