Pittsburgh MCG - Claire - Day 2

Our first full day in Yellowstone was incredible.  We saw so many awesome sites including multiple bison, past forest fire remains, the geyser “Old Faithful,” the hot spring “the Grand Prismatic,” and many more.  Our civic engagement activity today involved having a conversation with a complete stranger.  A few of our fellow Park Journeys participants had unpleasant interactions with people who were reluctant to speak with them.  Luckily, I found a very friendly woman from Elgin, Illinois who was a delight to talk to.  After our great day today, I am even more excited for the few days that remain.
