What's Happened???

Well, I haven't written in a while. After Yellowstone National Park we meandered over to my home town, Charleston, after stopping at Mt. Rushmore, South Dakota, De Smit, Minnesota & Deep Creek Campground, which was in North Carolina. I got to rest a whole month there in my old and comfy storage spot! From July 3 to July 29 I rested up in Charleston before my next long adventure. I was
exhausted after June! The funny talking people stayed with my owners.
But, a HUGE event took place in July!!! I was bought by the funny talking people! How exciting! I will miss my old owners, but I am looking forward to my new owners. If you want to continue tracking me and where I will be going, visit the funny talking people's blog.
I am ceremonially handing over my journal to my old owners new RV, who's name is Wilbur 2. He seems really nice as I got a chance to talk to him while we were in storage together. He said that he comes from Pennsylvania and was used by an older guy to go to motorcycle shows to sell parts. He also said that the guy was really nice and that he didn't even use half of what was in him. I told him that he has a lot to look forward to with his new owners!

Had to stop a couple of times to wait for bison to cross the road! I don't know why we had to wait. I'm bigger than they are! Although, they did look a bit fierce.

Old Faithful is still faithful to her eruptions.

Yellowstone Lake

Bryce Canyon National Park

This is a little delayed also. Bryce Canyon was beautiful! We have been seeing so many rock formations lately. It just shows how powerful the Flood must have been to carve such amazing formations!

The funny talking (but very cute and fun) children.

The folks from Down Under went to Pocatello Zoo. It sounded like they had fun!

Zion National Park

I'm a little bit behind in my journaling, so I'm going to make up for it now. This entry is about Zion National Park. The rock formations were beautiful and huge! It was fun driving into the park with all of the rock around you.

Sequoia National Park

June 2011 435
These were some of the little folks from Down Under playing in some snow. They loved it!

June 2011 471
This tree is called General Sherman. The diameter of the foot of the tree is 36 feet. That's HUGE!!!

June 2011 473
I heard the folks from Down Under saying that a person looking up at General Sherman is equivalent to a mouse looking up at a six foot person!

This is the 'average tree.'

They saw three bears in a meadow! That must have been pretty exciting!

P1240880
On the road to Needles!!! (As I said before, I much prefer Sequoia because it is a lot cooler there. Needles is hot!)

P1240922
The folks from Down Under had fun at the campground pool in Needles.

More to come...

Yosemite National Park

I am having SO much fun!!!

June 2011 144
These are the folks from Down Under, who talk funny (Ok, I think you get that by now). They have been taking great care of me. The waterfall that is behind them is called Bridal Veil Falls.

This is Bridal Veil Falls up close. Very pretty!

I love the folks from down under, but they are a little strange. They get all excited over a little squirrel! Squirrels can be very annoying and they are everywhere!!! I didn't quite understand why they got so excited over a squirrel until I found out that they don't have squirrels in the Land Down Under. I guess I would be excited if I got to see a Kangaroo!

They have the fluffy white things too! (By the way, if you didn't notice, I'M IN THE PICTURE!!!!)

The folks from Down Under took a walk to Mirror Lake. (Half Dome Rock is in the distance.)
