Day 13

Montana Saga - Day 13

Today we drove into Teton National Park.  The mountains in the park, the plains and prairie are stunning.  However, there are no animals- None!  They list animals in their park literature.  At every crossroads there is a sign telling you to drive slowly to save the life of a wild animal.  The only problem is that all the animals have moved to another park or totally out of the parks altogether.  For me, that is no great big deal.  I get to see sweet animals every day at work.  Mimi, the wildlife seeker, however, is not impressed.  We drove the Teton park loop and then drove 7-8 miles down a gravel road outside the park.  We never saw a thing.  Mimi may have a differing opinion but this is mine.

My favorite part of today was not Teton National Park (even though the scenery was beautiful.) Seeing the moose on the way to the park, and finding our little dinner place in Jackson at the end of the day were my highlights.

Beautiful moose on the way to Teton National Park.

Grand Teton Mountains.

The variation in color is so gorgeous!

Aspen trees.

Layers of mountains... everywhere!

Fires everywhere... some "planned burns",  others partially contained 'real' fires.

Our favorite dinner spot in Jackson, WY.  Cafe Genevieve.

Great cow pictures at Cafe Genevieve. Alan loves cows.

I love bacon!
