Day 72, Sunday, September 17, 2006
32 this morning in Jackson (Jackson Hole), Wy. No rain or snow and skys are partly sunny so we can see the mountains. Drove into Teton Village to look around. Motorhomes are hard to park there so we just drove through. A moose and her baby came trotting through the village while we drove through. Too fast to get a picture. Tried to enter the National Park from the South gate at the Village, but the road is too narrow for motorhomes. We drove out and then back into the park north of Jackson where we were allowed to enter. I can't find words to describe the beauty! Although Jackson only got some snow fluries yesterday, the mountains got a "dusting". Just enough to enhance their appearance. Made many stops at scenic views to take pictures. Found a lodge in the park serving lunch and went in to eat. Finished the drive through the park and finished off a 325 mile day at Rawlings, Wy. in an RV Park. Experienced ice on one of the mountain passes at 10,000 feet up and snow that stuck to the ground. Out of the mountains the winds got real gusty and bumped us around on the road. Here at the RV Park it's really howling and very cold with the wind chill. High-speed internet again so hope to finish pictures in the morning. Earlier today I went back and posted pictures from every day except Yellowstone. So if interested, go back to previous posts and have a look.
