Searching for Inspiration (Point), moose, and ice cream
We finally had a warm (relatively), sunny day at Grand Teton National Park today. So we headed out for some hiking!
Where the wild things are
Here we are at Day 17 (holy cow). We had a relaxed day and did some light hikes to some pretty lakes in the area. The weather was spectacular.
Yellowstone’s violent past has created a beautiful present

Well, we lucked out! Weather forecast was for a cold rain today. We headed out anyway and were rewarded with a slightly chilly, but pretty day!
