“I am trying to get a road trip approved through my work to get a few staff and a few clients to go to Yellowstone in September. We will be camping along parks on the road trip there and then staying near or in Yellowstone for about 2 or 3 days..... depending on how quick we get there. It's all still in the works right now. Any good tips?” 8:24:57 AM 6/30/05 “Be sure the staff and clients are at least familar with camping. This especially goes for the clients. If they have a different expectation of what the experience will be and it doesn't meet that expectation then you'll be miserable trying to jump through hoops.” 8:26:43 AM 6/30/05 “Yes, they have been on several camping trips with me in primitive sites... most recently this past Mon to Tues. We will have a big meeting before this trip takes place.” 8:32:37 AM 6/30/05 “What kind of company, that your work is doing this? Very cool. Come out a little further and hang out with the Washingtonians! It's only another 10 or so hours drive. LOL!” 12:42:29 PM 6/30/05 “Maybe you can expense out some new gear. Dutch ovens for cooking at night..... I'd try and get a handle on how much each person has traveled. If not much, then I'd try and pick a really unique local flavor type of place to camp as I headed west. This is really where TT could come in for you. If you know roughly where you'll be after 10 hrs of driving then through it out here for local ideas. Do the same after 10 more hrs,.....” 12:46:39 PM 6/30/05 “tie bacon to the front of your tent” 1:05:21 PM 6/30/05 “What kind of company, that your work is doing this? it's a mental health agency.... which makes it even more interesting!!! we do a lot of socialization activities and i've been doing a lot of camping activities as of late.” 7:28:03 PM 6/30/05 “Don't waste time at Mammoth Hot Springs. They are nothing like they were 20 years ago... now dried up for the most part.” 10:41:35 PM 6/30/05 “If your going to Yellowstone, you better hurry! There was this special news thing on tv about a month ago that said the whole is about to blow up and we'll all die when it does.” 11:22:48 PM 6/30/05 “lol Roam. You better hurry too then.” 12:42:51 AM 7/01/05 “I know!!!” 8:06:04 AM 7/01/05 “Nice deal Scorch!” 2:43:17 PM 7/01/05 ““If your going to Yellowstone, you better hurry! There was this special news thing on tv about a month ago that said the whole is about to blow up and we'll all die when it does.” Roam Around 12:22:48 AM 7/01/05 ignore this user I think I’ll wait until after. There won’t be any crowds if everyone’s dead.” 2:49:01 PM 7/01/05 “hey, good idea!! shhh, don't tell anyone, or they'll all wait.” 3:12:02 PM 7/01/05 “go figure. i was just told today that my work won't approve it. slackers.” 2:00:30 AM 7/02/05 “u get points for creative thinking on how to get a free trip to Yellowstone though.” 10:29:17 AM 7/02/05 “heh, thanks” 10:56:32 PM 7/02/05 “What about something less bold? Shenandoah, Katahdyn (sp), ....... If 4-5 total days of driving time killed the deal then pick something with a day each way or even half a day of driving time. Yep, points for creativity.” 7:56:35 AM 7/03/05
