Hello LUG

We have been cross-country skiing a great deal this winter, what else  
should an old retiree do.  You have seen several photos from these  
trips up to the eastern edge of Yellowstone Park.  I decided that I  
should show you what the country looks like, so the photos that follow  
are from those days.  Sunday, when we skied, we could hear wolves  
howling, dramatic!

The first is what the ski trail looks like near the East Gate of  
Yellowstone.

The trail runs along a small stream, which I believe is most beautiful.

When my wife saw this photo she decided it should be cropped.

Last night's paper said that wolves may have killed the foxes that  
were hanging around Pahaska.  One of these foxes was the subject of my  
photo, fox in the snow.  On the way home from skiing an SUV passed and  
on the back of this vehicle was what looked like one of the foxes.   
Was the driver one of the wolves the newspaper mentioned?  This photo  
was a grab shot through the windshield and therefore is not up to the  
Summilux's usual quality.

Hope you enjoy and I apologize for the length of this email.
