Picture Journal: A Better Title

It is 24 hours later and here I am writing again on lunch break. I think my original idea of a picture-a-day blog didn't quite capture what I intend to do with this blog. I will inevitably be taking lots of pictures, and I think it would be a great organizational/communication tool to post those on this blog as a photo journal!
So, here we go!
The rest of my day yesterday was excellent. I spent most of the time with the Youth Conservation Corps training. I am not a part of this group, but may be spending a lot of time with them. They oversee two 4.5 week groups of 15-18 year olds who come in as conservation workers. Seems like a really cool program. And most of the staff are around my age and seem cool. A potential pool of friends.
After that training, I visited my cat, finished unpacking and ran into Gardiner. What a fun little town! I picked up some groceries and ate dinner/checked internet at a little bookstore/coffee shop called the Tumbleweed.
After that, I ran up to Mammoth Hot Springs and jogged around the terraces taking pictures and getting some exercise. Good stuff.
Today, a College intern and I went to Canyon to get our uniforms. I have a full set coming in the mail, but it might not be here before I need to have a uniform!
Anyway, I'm back in Mammoth. So, here are the pictures!
A better look at where I live. I am the last house in the distance.

This is where my office is located. The Youth Programs door on the left. I don't think I will be spending much time indoors, though.

This is where I live. ( :

The North Entrance to Yellowstone: 10 minutes from my house.

The purpose of National Parks. Roosevelt's words.

I decided to go for a job on the Terraces in Mammoth Hot Springs (where I live).

Pretty rad colors and formations in the springs.

Beautiful. I had to start heading back though. Don't want to get caught out after dark!

More to come in the upcoming days!
Peace.
