Advice from a Bison

Bison in Teddy Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota

I bought the most wonderful beige tee shirt in Teddy Roosevelt National Park in Medora, North Dakota. The front shows a picture of bison grazing on the grasslands along with wise words of advice. I think the sentiments perfectly sum up what I learned from my trip to North and South Dakota.  Perhaps they go so far as to say what I feel about life.

 

Advice from a Bison:

  • Stand your ground.
  • Have a tough hide.
  • Keep moving on.
  • Cherish wide-open spaces.
  • Have a strong spirit.
  • Roam wild and free.
  • Let the chips fall where they may!

 

The only thing the bison seemed to have missed was: Love your family.
