Roadies


Before it's said and done, these bears will be among the best traveled in the nation. So far, this particular bear, Yogi, has logged some 200 miles. Here he's blanketed against the cold (and damage) preparing to start another leg of his trip on a snowy day in late March. That's me on the right, taking liberties with Yogi's nose. Ron Ogletree is on the left. Chito, the Jack Russell is in the foreground. An outcropping of Jim Mountain, part of the Southern Absarokas, is just visible through the snow. You can't see the artist, Sally Ogletree, or Lakshmi, my standard poodle and companion, who waits in the truck.



This leg of Yogi's journey takes him down to the Cody Armory where he'll be featured in the Trolley Tour.
