After several days of inventory and counting, we closed the Gift Shop on Friday, cleaned our rooms, and departed for various locations across the country. Co-workers went to Pennsylvania, Illinois, Michigan, Oregon, Texas and more. Photos taken by co-worker, David, of me counting stuffed animals. 41 Raccoons and 26 Black Bears.
I drove into Utah to do some birding at Bear River National Wildlife Refuge. I was horrified to see so many people out hunting ducks in the refuge with guns, boats, and wearing waders. This is supposed to be a REFUGE for ducks to rest and eat and be peaceful.
After one night in the area, I drove south to Moab. Its a laid-back small city in the middle of canyon country. Arches NP and Canyonlands NP are nearby, as are many miles of mountain bike trails. The hostel is cozy, convenient, and cheap. I have done a few morning hikes while doing computer work in the afternoon.
