We have spent the past 6 days in the National Park and are now in a RV park in Jackson Hole, about 1 mile from my conference. The park is definetly a hikers park, many people with kids do both the Tetons and Yellowstone as they are so close. We find the Tetons less commercial and touristy. We rented a kayak yesterday on Jackson lake, started out smooth and easy, but the swells started when the storm clouds grew over the peaks. We paddled like crazy to get back to shore before any lightning and then the storm passed. Oh well, it was fun anyway. Louie had to go to the dog sitters, as they have many strict rules about dogs in the park. We did do one long 10 mile hike, that wore me out. Ouie made many new friends with lots of kids in the campground, he now can catch a ball at the first throw!
Jackson Hole is a nice town, pretty touristy, but has great restraunts and a very nice whole foods grocer where you can get anything, so I stocked up. There are many rafting trips down the snake river,an alpine slide, and a bungy jumping thing, that made me think of Dylan and Genna as lots of kids were doing summersaults on it, looked like fun! Our RV park is right in the center of town at the base of the ski area, fairly quiet and convient for what we have planned. I know everyone is hot in the country, it is even hot here right now in the afternoon. Mornings tend to be in the 40's and takes late in the day to get hot, we are grateful not to be in the desert right now of 104 temps. Travis you may recognize Sundance lodge, a front view and a view of the gardens with Joe and Louie
