Getting All Caught Up

Sorry it has been so long between updates… Lots going on, but I’ll be getting it up-to-date over the next few days/weeks/years.  To save time I’ll be keeping the text short so it might look more like a photo blog.  Check back often and see what I’ve posted!

The Tetons, a Frozen Lake and Ripley’s

We are back home after out Jackson weekend.  Saturday was spent snowshoeing in Grand Teton National Park.  We were a little worried about the amount of cars and people at the trail head parking lot, but it turned out they all were skiing on the closed road and we had the back-county all to ourselves!  After being out for a few hours we headed back for lunch and a trip to the Ripley’s Museum in town.  The plan was to do more snowshoeing on Sunday, but a winter storm forced us to head for home early.

To Jackson Hole for the Sled Dog Race Start!

Yesterday we headed out of Lander early and drove up to Jackson Hole for the start of the Jackson to Park City, UT sled dog race.  The race started in the square in Jackson where we lucky enough to get a place on the deck of a bar overlooking the start line.  After the first few racers started we decided that the beer wasn’t keeping us warm enough and it was time to warm up with a nice dinner and s’mores for desert.  Now it’s time for some snowshoeing in Grand Teton National Park…

Had to Get Out of the House!

Mostly hanging around the house this weekend, but we did get out for a little bit and checked out the airport and played some at the city park.  Next weekend it’s up the Jackson for the start of the dog sled race!

Spending the Afternoon Working in Jeffrey City

Spent the afternoon finishing up work at the little Jeffrey City Branch Library. It’s cold and windy and out out the back window I noticed a truck parked, maybe abandoned, with an insane amount of hail damage on it…
