- Wow! thanks for getting back to me, I felt as though I had reached a deadend and was beginning to have doubts about going.. (just a small doubt). Went as a volunteer to work on trail in Siberia by myself last year so I have experience with living many types of people..but because of the longer stay I was getting some doubts.

Are you still out by the Park?
Just happened to do a search for past YNP employees and found this wonderful site. I am a Operations Coordinator in a hospital Medical Records dept. I built and maintain perimeters for the computer system. This includes all users and what they are allowed to view, because of patient privacy. I also design all forms that are used by the hospital which now numbers over 600. Love my job! Second job is I live and help take care of my 82 & 83 year old mom and dad. They just celebrated their 66 yr anniversary.
Think of Yellowstone and all the wonderful people I met there often. Great to see some familiar faces.
Take Care
