Cousins' Reunion 2011 - 8/31/11

We woke up in Jackson, WY - ready to drive through Grand Tetons and Yellowstone parks on the way to the Cuzzins' Reunion in Livingston, MT. We arrived at Haug Ranch late at night. While we had planned to stay in the cabin on Wineglass Mountain, they put us up there for the night.

This moose antler chandelier was in the lobby of Wyoming Inn in Jackson, WY..
The lobby of Wyoming Inn was a comfortable place to spend some time. Off the lobby was a dining room where we had a great breakfast to start the day.
A nice place to stay, and the only one in Jackson Hole that offers a discount for AAA members.
Next to the park in downtown Jackson, WY we found this stage coach ready to give rides around town.
The horses and driver looked relaxed but ready to go.
We stopped at the visitors center, where we got really good advice for places to visit on our return. Then we hit the ATM before leaving town. Covered boardwalks were the norm in downtown Jackson, WY.
This is a fly shop rack of materials - fishing is in important passion in Jackson Hole.
We headed north toward the Grand Tetons.
The views of the mountains thrust up from the valley floor was remarkable.
As we drove north in the valley the views of the mountains kept changing.
The clouds passing over changed the light and shadow.
The glaciers clinging to the mountain slopes were visible all along.
Sometimes you could see the next mountain range through the notches.
The clouds and sky were wonderful.

There were turnouts aligned with interesting views along the way.
The drive was leisurely along the two-lane road leading north..
Jenny lake was recommended by Cousin David.
Janet like the view.
We anticipated taking the boat across the Jenny Lake on our return and hiking up to Hidden Falls.
An interesting brick wall.
