Day 43 (D-18) Yellowstone, here we come!

This is where we are heading next: YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK.
After you take time to enjoy this beautiful summer weather we are having, you can maybe find some time to sit back and watch this film. Maybe you saw it on French television, Channel 5, last year.  If you are too busy now, you can watch it some day when you have the time.
Enjoy. Dream. Get psyched! ( = get excited about going to visit Yellowstone National Park...even if we won't be there in winter and even if we don't see all these animals!)
And it's in French.

Yellowstone, Terres d'Extrêmes:

But before we head into Yellowstone, one more cowboy song. 
This is the Last Cowboy Song (two versions)

Lyrics: 
The Last Cowboy Song
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
He rides the feed lots, clerks in the markets
On weekends sellin' tobacco and beer
And his dreams of tomorrow, surrounded by fences
But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here
He blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark
And eyeball to eyeball, old Wyatt backed down
He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas
And rode with the 7th when Custer went down
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
Remington showed us how he looked on canvas
And Louis Lamour has told us his tale
Me and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him
And wish to God we could have ridden his trail

The old Chisholm trail is covered in concrete now
And they truck 'em to market in fifty-foot rigs
They blow by his marker never slowing to read it
Like living and dying was all he did

This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year Waltz
The voices sound sad as they're singing' along
Another piece of America's lost

This is the last cowboy song....

This is the last cowboy song....

-- sit back =  Do you remember this phrasal verb?  To sit in a relaxed way.  So sit back and and enjoy the film...in French!
