Greetings from Yellowstone National Park
I saw my first wild wolf in Yellowstone National Park. I saw a lot of firsts there, bears and buffalo. It was also my first time to breathe such fresh air. My first time in the park presented me with a completely different experience from being in the city (Houston,…
