old pic... but... aaron & i were drinking 40s & playing scrabble (i kicked his butt) & i said "did you hear that?" & he didn't... but it kept growling so eventually he did. some guy with socks up to his knees said he thought it was mating season... then we were worried. the growling kept getting louder & there was more than 1. we were getting ready to walk to the bathroom, but didn't know what to do, and then we could see the black shapes in the shadows... wasn't just 2, the herd was on the move.

plenty of giggling ensued as we discussed our options. what do you do if a bison walks towards you? aaron has a soundbite i'll try to post later. random couple joined us to giggle, watch & listen to the herd & discuss bison injuries. we can still hear their growls kind of like really bad man snoring or elephant seals... maybe one will curl up next to the tent to keep us warm... but they stink! & aaron still does not want one to breathe on him. we are getting in the tent and pretending it will stop a curious bison. :) goodnight
