They will be very intelligent too, Adrian. We'll need hordes of tutors and arts instructors.

Oh, good, popeye's. Still, I am sure people dump stuff in there too.

Will the children turn out to be tree hugging squirrel savers, Shell? If so, brava!

Did I tell you the story about the squirrel or do you just happen to get the impression that I rescue animals?

I didn’t really notice a lot of manmade trash in any of the geysers or pools while I was there. There were plenty of sticks and things, but I think park policy is to leave stuff like that in place. Overall I thought the place was pretty clean. If you don’t count the elk stew going in one of the pools on the north side of Norris basin. We were there really early in the season though so I guess things might get worse later in the summer.

You didn't, but I think you're just plain good all round, hon. I had a feeling you loved animals.

I used one of those face merging things, and so I am proud to present to you all: Tiberius Barclay-Hayter.

Wow Shell. I can't get over how lovely your eyes are.

Ditto

Adrian, that is one freaking cute baby. It looks like a benevolent dictator in the making. Maybe Tiberius Leto Atreides Barclay-Hayter?

Popeye's, Yellowstone actually has a major problem with the Morning Glory pool. There is no visible trash because it is so deep. The visible effects of it stopping up the vents is a discoloration from algae being allowed to form because the temperature is lowered.

Alright, fuck the distance...this shit is on.

I believe you Shell. I was just commenting on the overall appearance of the park which I thought was quite good. But like I said it was early in the season and well before most of the 2 million annual visitors had come through. I also don’t have a lot to compare it to even though this was my second visit to Yellowstone. The first time was 1970. I was 8 and don’t have a lot of detailed memories of that trip. A lot has changed since then though. As far as the rules concerning people go most of the changes are for the better. As far as changes to the thermal features go I guess that’s the nature of the beast. Although if people are affecting them by throwing stuff in you wouldn’t hear many objections from me if you proposed throwing litterers in after their trash….
