In total, my family saw 8 bears, as well as countless deer, bison, mountain goats and more. The thrill of spotting a bear from afar is an overflowing joy that steals the show from anything else that happened that day. To have 8 in one trip, it's a miracle we didn't burst from pure enthusiasm. We've taken the exact same route years later with other family and didn't see a single bear. That first trip set our expectations so high for every other adventure that we now make ourselves sick scanning the tree line when driving, mistaking every stump for a bear. But nothing will ever compare to the magic that was that first trip.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Storybook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe story I wrote for it is simple and a fun addition to the piece:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA rolling thunder creeps out from deep within the grizzled bear as he searches for food. A bear gets hungry round this time of day, and a very fine day it seems. It is around noon, the grass is waving long in the wind, flowing like the river rushing behind it. The closer he comes to the water, further from the trees, he can sense the eyes of many. He is used to this sort of thing, people watching from the road beyond. He is not a pompous bear, so he doesn't flaunt for the cameras, but he does enjoy letting them get a sight of him every once in a while. He is hungry though, so today’s wandering is in search of food. Grass will have to do for now. Maybe he’ll go fishing later on. There is a nice huckleberry bush he found the other day, and they are just ripe enough. The end of summer is always his favorite, with the weather being perfect, and the berries filling out the bushes. There is food to find, water to fish, and plenty of afternoon left to meander. Yes, this is a fine day.

At least while it’s just me, my brother, and parents. This particular trip one of my very close friends came along, and that too is a special realationship that might change as time moves forward. We might not live in the same place forever, so soaking up this time feels like a sponge that will never hold enough water. Change is good, and brings much happiness, but change is bittersweet. I want to hold on to the things I have now so bad, and dread the day they change, but simultaneously wish for things to be different.

The sun set at 9:40pm, so we sat and waited, and it was so freezing despite it being July. The deer were very friendly and everywhere. My friend and I sat and drew the view while people would walk past and look at what we were doing. I did my scrabbly scribble of the mountains, and my friend, her beautiful detailed line work and watercolor. Having her on the trip meant I had someone to sit and draw with, which we did many times throughout the two weeks we were there (well it was 10 day I think… and a full SEVEN days of driving to get there and back home!!

The herd has come out from the thick trees to graze the grass. This is their favorite spot on the mountain, just under the peak. There is peace, food, and plenty of room to stretch out and rest. The summer sun is lowering in the sky, pressing gently against their fur. Autumn’s chill will be here before they know it. On the other side of the summit, where the sun is setting, the ocean stretches out between the two lands. There is much more ground to explore, but when given such a wonderful place, a deer doesn't feel the need to wander too far.

I was worried they wouldn't have a good time. The day before they flew in, my family explored the area to see what was worth showing them. We drove through the rolling hills and open ranges of those classic Western landscapes in Custer State park, where we came upon over 100 bison taking their rest just off the road. It was such an amazing thing to see simply because of the number of them. We knew we had to come back with my friends because they had never seen bison before. So the next day, we did so. And there wasn't a single bison in sight. it was the most underwhelming moment, and I remember being so disappointed that we couldn't give my friends the scene we'd hyped up. We ended up having so much fun and I shouldn't have worried, because I was reminded that I have the power to make a good time out of nothing as long as I keep a good attitude, and am surrounded by good people. With that knowledge, life is one long joyride, no matter the disappointments and sorrows that occur.

It’s when you're sitting outside running around in the grass and sitting on the porch stairs. It’s talking about memories and laughing over times that actually felt quite miserable. It’s very simple, really, what makes a good day together, and it usually comes without planning it. It can come at any time, but it’s easy to brush off for so called “more important” things. You have to make a conscious effort to be present with each other, which has become more difficult over the years with social media, and work being available in your pocket. So while it’s very simple on what makes a good day together, it’s hard to actually let it happen, but probably the most important thing to practice. On a trip to Durango Colorado I took with my family, my favorite day we spent there was when we all sat on the lawn out front, running through the grass and the trees doing a whole lot of nothing, and it was good to simply be together. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Storybook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe story I wrote for it is simple and a fun addition to the piece:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor 60 years or so, swaying in the wind, the old willow tree has stood.

The reason I love this place so much more than all the rest is not really an explainable feeling, but if I had to try, I’d say that the trees are the perfect shade of green. They’re not the deepest green of the damp rainy canopies that cover the Pacific north west, which are beautiful, but I find a Bit eerie. Tthe grass begs to be lived on, by animal and man, with a picturesque farmhouse sitting on top. The rivers feel more crisp and peaceful than anywhere else. It’s the perfect blend of all the surrounding states that make the western US so beautiful. It’s home to some of the most charming communities and people. It’s almost the complete opposite of the desert I've lived in my whole life. so Sure, it’s a “the grass is greener on the other side” kind of situation, but in this case I think it;s safe to say that the grass literally is greener on the other side. I just wish so badly to have seasons that you can see change, and to have easier access to nature and activities that come with it. I just feel that in Arizona, as beautiful and grand as it is, with it;s own perks and benefits, isn't the right place for me. I’m grateful to be here, and dont have plans to leave anytime soon, but for some reason, I feel that Montana is where I will end up someday.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Storybook\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe story I wrote for it is simple and a fun addition to the piece:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIf you listen closely, you can hear a melody ringing through the trees.
