Visited Grand Teton National Park today and had to pass through Jackson Hole to get there - weird name for a town. The park was lovely, different than the others we've visited as the mountains are the backdrop to flat open spaces rather than trees and rock, and the Snake River running right through it. It's very beautiful. We stopped off at Jackson lake and had a bit of a walk around and then drove to the top of signal mountain from where the views were spectacular. The Teton mountain range are the youngest in North America, but you wouldn't know by looking at them. They are very cool actually as they are very craggy looking - maybe they are going through puberty!
Didn't see any animals in the park, not one. We did see lots of deer on the drive to the park and lots of stupid prairie dogs playing chicken.
I think Mike had a nice birthday.

Mike: Beautiful scenery, it's a bit too much day after day! I know I'll
regret saying that when we get to the plains. I don't do birthdays!
