The Grandest of Tetons

The rumors are true I believe - the Grand Tetons are named for ... well, you know. Although we would argue that is NOT what they look like, and if they do, they'd be REALLY uncomfortable & hard to support.

Anyway, we spent two nights in Grand Teton National Park - the first at a campsite in the southern region and the second at Jenny Lake campground right in the heart of the Tetons. While the highlight for both of us was most assuredly paddling in the shadows of the mountains, we did some hiking and lounging in the park and shopping in nearby Jackson, WY. A nice reprieve from it all, Sunday morning we attended an Episcopal service at the Chapel of the Transfiguration.

As always, here are some pics!



In case anyone was wondering what we're eating ... most days for breakfast we eat oatmeal or hash browns on the camp stove; lunch is usually pita or tortilla with hummus, peanut butter or honey (or combinations) & dinner ranges from pasta to rice & beans or falafel to pizza in a hotel when we're that lucky! And our favorite snack is Snickers bars. Our second day in the Tetons we treated ourselves to a more filling lunch: rice & beans with cheese all wrapped up in tortillas. Mmm Mmm Good!
