Hi from out on the frontier! My name is Shelli Johnson. I'm 37, and operate a business called Yellowstone Journal Corporation. Our website is YellowstonePark.com. We are the biggest fans of Yellowstone Park, the world's original national park. Our company publishes two magazines, Yellowstone Journal, which covers in-depth news about the environment, ecology, geysers, wolf reintroduction, grizzly bear management, winter use, fishing, hiking, and other interesting topics, and "99 Things to Do in Yellowstone County," a print and online magazine that is the most popular and foremost guide on all the things there are to do in the greater Yellowstone region. YellowstonePark.com was voted the "#1 tourism website in the World" by the Webby Award's People's Voice last year. What this means is we're a company for the people! We love Yellowstone and the states surrounding it, including Wyoming, Montana and Idaho, and we strive to share all we know about it with the public, who are all stakeholders of our treasured national parks.

Yellowstone vacation guideblog written by customers
We think we're experts on Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding states when it comes to things to do and trip-planning advice. However, we also realize that customers trust other customers. We serve people and so, we asked our customers at YellowstonePark.com to write their own version of "Things to Do on a Yellowstone Vacation." This growing blog is a result of that.

A notebook full of column-worthy topics
--On the way to my first horse-packing expedition, my dad said, "Whatever you do, never trust a horse." Upon arriving at camp and meeting our guide, the first advice he gave was, "Always trust your horse." At many times I have found myself at such a cross roads.
--Multi-tasking. I've got to be on the best of the best. But I am now reading more and more articles about how "multi-tasking makes you stupid." Crud.
--"Why Gender Matters" is a great book, based on the scientific differences between boys and girls. Any adult, parent, teacher, CEO, manager, etc., should read this book. Or, at least anyone who works with, lives with or plays with the opposite sex. It's extremely insightful and you'll be better for it.
--Soon we'll be able to upload knowledge to our brain. If you're a left brain engineer but want to be an artist, no problem. In a few years you'll be able to install bits into your brain and upload knowledge. How cool is that?
--I used to hate science fiction. But now, given the speed at which technology is increasing, sci fi not so far from reality. And I love technology and gadgets and the possibilities of the increasing technology. Still not up for Star Trek, but bring on the Matrixx.
--I had ACL reconstruction in Montana in 1986 after blowing out my knee in basketball practice with the University of Montana Lady Griz. I had surgery during the afternoon on Oct. 31. When I came out of anesthesia, no lie, the nurse working on me was dressed like the devil. For a moment I thought I had died and went to hell. This wasn't funny.
