Sept. 9 - Grand Teton National Park

Grand Tetons
Today we drove to/through the Grand Teton National Park. This was such a picturesque drive. The mountain range is just beautiful. The highest mountains are snow topped and sit alongside a lake. We stopped a couple of times just to look. Of course, the girls had to touch the water....icy!

We drove on to Jackson Hole and ended up arriving earlier than planned. Rick and the girls rode the gondola to the top of the mountain in Teton village. After that, we made the decision to continue driving so that we would be able to get to Tahoe on Thursday rather than Friday.
Top of the Mountain! What a view!
So chilly at the top we needed hot chocolate!
So we plotted a new course, skipping Utah and driving through Idaho. We stayed the night in Twin Falls, Idaho. The city had a Target, bagel shop, Old Navy....etc. Though we didn't go, it was so good to see! We haven't seen civilization like that in a long time!
