We made our annual trip to Jackson, Wyoming over Conference weekend only we went a day early. It was nice to be able to listen to Conference the first day instead of several days later.
This is looking South toward Snow King. We always stay at the Parkway Inn. It is a little older but it is still nice and homey and close enough to town to walk all over.
We woke to a dusting of snow in the valley and at Bob's place.
The worst part was that there was a nice breeze all morning while we were weighing the cattle. Every time I touched a fence rail my gloves got a little more wet and my hands about froze to death!
The steers looked good--as usual. Bob is a good care-taker and they are usually too big.
After weighing and loading the steers on the five and a half trucks, we went into the "bunkhouse" for lunch. Jenifer, (in the middle) makes us a nice lunch each year. The homemade bread was to die for. She had sliced the loaf and buttered each piece then she wrapped it in tin foil and stuck it in the over to warm--YUM!
We sat around the wood burning stove and warmed our selves. Usually we sit outside around the picnic table- but not this year!
After a nice hot shower, we did a little shopping around town. Bryan found me a darling sweater dress for my birthday and we enjoyed a nice drive to Moran Junction. We couldn't go to the Park because the U.S. Government shut down and the Park was included in the closures! Darn politicians.
I found this sign in Jackson and it rang true to me.
The Tetons
Saturday morning we went to my favorite place for breakfast--The Bunnery. I had a delicious quiche and brought home some sweet treats for the kids. I missed not having them come this year!
Fantastic picture of the Tetons! The Bunnery is kind of a funny name.
