Visit to Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center

Today was a visit to Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center - one of our favorite places!  We've been here several times and know the bears and wolves by name and markings.  The cubs Grant & Roosevelt have gotten larger, but are still playful....Summit still has his unique folded ear, Akela is still letting McKinley know that she is the boss!  While they have split the packs into three now, it is still easy to see them and watch them interact with each other, even though fences separate them.


The Center is growing and today there were many more visitors than we have seen in the past.  Rachel & Ryan got to be "Keeper Kids" for the last time.....as the age for keeper kids is 5-12, but they can be "Keeper Crew" when we come back!  Keeper Sarah was here - she was the keeper that took the kids on "Keeper Kids" when we were here in January 2013 -- and it was funny to compare the pictures from then to now!

After visiting the bears and wolves, we visited several local merchants and improved the local economy, then feasted on pasta at Pete's Pasta & Pizza!  After carb-loading we returned to the hotel to pack up and ready for our road-trip to Boise, ID tomorrow.  We head there to visit with Chuck's nephew and his family for a few days before we head back to balmy Houston. 

Check out the photos in the album - same link, same bears and wolves - they are just older and bigger!
