After checking out the town (and all the ancient climbing gear displayed in one of the mountaineering shops of which Drew proudly pointed out all the pieces which he had owned in the past - which were many), it was off the check out the Tetons, Jenny Lake & Teton village! Jenny Lake was my favorite part of the trip! The view was stunning! Something you just don't really appreciate when you are young. And even though the Tetons where socked in by some clouds, they were still amazing to behold!
So here we are having some fun with the wildlife! Unfortunately the only bears we saw were either stuffed or bronzed. Carter and Macy perfectly captured the expression of this little bear. And we know you are supposed to stay a few hundred yards away from any roaming animals, but this bison just didn't seem to care how close we were! :)
The trip wouldn't have been complete without a visit to "Old Faithful!" I hadn't seen it in 30 years, but it was just as amazing AND smelly as I'd remembered!
As hard as I tried, I was unable (and not surprised) that the little Black Bears with the red collars were no where to be seen in any of the gift shops :(
Like Old Faithful, they should be a Wyoming staple!

Homecoming!
Yes - Carter went and looked like this!
BEAUTIFUL! Love the dress and its Asian flair! She had a good time, but I think would rather have been home curled up with her physics & chemistry books....
