Christmas Time Is Here!

Once Upon a time, in the early years of Yellowstone National Park, there was a snowstorm on August 25th. It was  a whopper of a storm and everyone was stuck in the Inn for a day or so. The guests, and staff made light of the situation by throwing a Christmas party. The tradition continues on today!

Employees volunteering to decorate cookies. The Asians said they had never done it before... seems to me they are basically pro.

I helped decorate the lobby with some of the managers, and the skills I learned as an apprentice to my mother during her Church lady days.




Santa even came! He came down from the crows nest in the lobby. The kids were freaking out and saying things like: "how did he know we were here???? Were on vacation!" the foreign kids gave him quizzical looks as if to say "why is Santa speaking English?"
