I thought I would chronicle the events of our family vacation this year:
Day 1 - Traveled all day to Rapid City, SD and stayed overnight at a hotel near Mt. Rushmore.
Day 2 - Quick breakfast at the hotel and out to Scheels to buy some sandals / wet socks for white water rafting in Jackson Hole, WY. Then, we drove pretty much all day to Yellowstone National Park. Our drive was interrupted by a short drive to the Montana border where we got a picture taken by the 'Welcome to Montana' sign. We reached Yellowstone around 6:00pm and were anticipating making it to Jackson Hole by 8:00pm. Our plans, needless to say, did not come to fruition as the ranger told us that there was snow and ice on the south pass. But, we managed to see a bunch of bison, a few elk and a number of antelope and mule deer along the way. We finally reached the hotel and were pretty exhausted around 9:30pm. Not sure why but I think I left the cord for the camera at home and packed the wrong one. I'll try to get that fixed for tomorrow but pictures may have to wait until after the trip.
So far, all systems are go, nobody has gotten sick, Heidi and I are still speaking to each other (;), and we are having a blast. This morning, as I write this, its 53 degrees in Jackson.
Grace & Peace.
