Hi everyone from Jr. What a wonderful second day in the park. I started the day playing in the snow. It was very cold so I gave my snowman my red hat. When I sat next to him my tail and butt got very cold. Then I went to look at water falls. While I was there I saw an Osprey nest with a mommy and baby birds. The very big nest was on the top of the rock. It is very hard to see in the picture so you must look carefully for the sticks and a little bit of white from the birds. I shared my binoculars with a very nice young couple and they asked me if I had been in Jackson Hole a few days ago. They remembered me having lunch in the park. I gave them my address so they could read about my adventures. They live near Los Angeles. Maybe near Mickey the Mouse. I saw more beautiful Geisers and climbed way up high and I could see Cmor way down below. Poor Cmor, he is too big to climb hills and walk on the boardwalks but I always share stories and pictures with him. Then I had the most wonderful thing happen. Cmor was driving along and we saw lots of people standing near the river and they all had cameras. Cmor stopped and I rolled down the window and asked what was happening because I am a very nosy little monkey, just like my cousin, Curious George. A man said a grizzly bear was up in the bushes across the river and wanted to swim across because there was a fresh kill on our side of the river. He wanted to eat but was afraid of all the cars and people. I looked really hard but I couldn't see him. Then all of a sudden I heard a loud howling across the river and a wolf chased the Grizzly down into the river. I was not fast enough to take a picture of the wolf but I did take pictures of the bear. I wish I had my friend Dawns big camera lens so I would have a close up picture of the bear. The bear swam around a little and went partway up the hill again. I finally left because I really didn't want the bear to see me. I was afraid he might want monkey for lunch. As we were leaving Yellowstone we drove in lots of snow and saw beautiful frozen lakes. I saw dark black clouds and it rained a little. Cmor and I were very happy to get to Cody Wyoming and our next camp. Goodnight from Junior. I will write again tomorrow.
