The Buffalo Roam Auction in West Yellowstone





Robin and I just got home today from the big week end in West Yellowstone. It was a great ending to the Buffalo Roam project which began in 2007. Robins calf, Lulubelle, was chosen to be raffled off. Over 2700 tickets were sold and she was won by a man from Boise, Idaho. Robin was pretty happy.
Saturday night was the auction of the rest of buffalo and calves. Buttercup was number 3 and Poppy number 4. Buttercup brought 3800.00 which was great then Poppy sold for 4500.00. I was thrilled to death. It was sad to know it was all over and probably never see any of them again.

I guess I was so thrilled with Poppy making so much money I had to show her twice. Someday I will learn how to do this.
