Yellowstone Adventure - Day 60

   Well after work I decided that after dinner and before church I would head out in the geyser basin to witness Grand geyser erupting. This geyser erupts every nine hours give out take an hour and a half. It is supposed to be pretty spectacular when it erupts. I will give it until eight pm and then I have to walk over to rec center for church.  So I will just sit and wait and write in the blog for a while.
  Early morning shift and after breakfast headed into store and worked with Sandy and Brian on putting up knick knacks. I got to stock the Christmas items today. They sell pretty well here. Business was very slow this morning and never really had any cashier work at all. So I stocked until lunch break. Lunch was fantastic. Pork chops in a great sauce and potatoes with carrots in a ginger sauce. With key lime pie for dessert. James really out did himself today.
  After lunch business was booking. Was not able to look up or take a break for two and a half hours. I worked the grocery side and it was so hectic that tourist left behind their car keys and one guy left his cell phone. Eventually they all returned for the items and thanked me for holding on to them.  I got to meet a family from Madison Indiana. I also talked a little with a couple from Germany who said it was too hot here. I said "Really!" As it was eighty degrees today with no humidity. I guess Germany is a little colder than here.
  We were short a cashier today as Race, yes that is his name, banged himself up doing mountain biking over at Big Sky. His shoulder and arm are very scabbed over now.  He may be back tomorrow or claiming injured once again.
  Well that about does it for today. I pray that all your services were good today and that you worshipped God today. I hope the campus ministry group does well tonight in our services. They are a good bunch of kids.
  p.s. Grand Geyser went off around seven ten PM and it was worth the wait. I will post videis on Facebook when I can. I will call this geyser the fireworks of geysers because that is what it reminded me of. It was hands down the most spectacular geyser I have seen thus far and really is many times better than old faithful geyser. The geyser erupted for almost ten minutes and when it started off it started with a bang.  Tourists just need to slow down and witness some of these to get a full impression of Yellowstone.
