Yellowstone Park Work

I consider it a great honor to have been selected to produce a huge amount of work for Yellowstone National Park. I began my work there in 1989 by making a reproduction of the original fire screen in the lobby, to replace  the screen that was destroyed when the dining room fireplace collapsed during the Quake Lake earthquake! That began a 20 year relationship that I will always treasure. My work in Yellowstone monopolized my entire year some years, while others the work only took a few weeks, and my work took me all over the Park to numerous locations, and every project was a pleasure.

Often my pickup was one of the first into the Park in the Spring, and I recall one November pushing snow with the front bumper for 58 miles knowing my pickup was the last one to travel the roads that Fall! One Spring, as I slowly nosed my rig through a herd of young buffalo on the road, I was delighted as they trotted along beside and behind me for a half mile kicking up their heels enjoying being alive in Yellowstone. I have to say I share their sentiments.
