I had visitors from FL with me today.  Perhaps it was first timers
good luck that brought the Fountain-Morning dual eruption this AM!

Grand held us in the hot sun with only occasional breezes til the
first full turban cycle outside the window.  First-Timers good luck
can only last so long.

Coming N on the loop road there was a 45min bison delay--3 undersized
animals on the "S" curves that ANYONE could have gotten by!  One tour
driver buzzed a couple of hundred yards toward the front of the line
across the double yellow to cut in where a driver had left space as he
crawled forward--wish I had taken a photo before the tour van cut back
in.  I was flabbergasted.  The southbound traffic was still taking
photos, I guess, because he made it safely. Another patch of
stop-on-the-road drivers on the W entrance road looking at elk added
to the frustration.
