Weekly Update

Jackson, WY as seen from the Teton Natl Forest looking west toward Idaho

We've had an interesting week.  We worked (volunteered) on Friday & Saturday  On Sunday we helped Jenny (more like provide moral support) as she moved her & Craig's trailer from Dubois, WY to Moran, WY for their month stay in Moran.  Unfortunately, Craig has an eye issue that required laser surgery, and he's currently having to stay in Idaho while recovering.  Hopefully, he'll be cleared to travel the mountain passes by next week, and they can get back to their planned hikes in the Teton area.

Monday was our grocery shopping and walk the town of Jackson day.  Tuesday was rehang another of our MCD shades that had fallen down on Sunday, fill a propane tank and clean some in the trailer.  Wednesday was hike in the Bridger-Teton Natl Forest and take a ride over to Victor, ID for a burger day.  Today was work (volunteer) day.

Wednesday and today were exciting days for the fish as this was fish "marking" days where the adipose fin is cut so researchers can tell where the fish came from when river and lake census are taken.

So that gets you up to day.  It's amazing how fast the first month here has passed.  The weather is definitely different than what we experienced last year.  We had light snow flurries this afternoon and the weather channel  app is calling for light snow by 9 PM tonight.  We greet tomorrow - the first day of summer - with a hard freeze warning.  Ahhh, summer in Teton County!  Reminds us of Mark Twain's comment where he stated something about the coldest winter he'd ever experienced was a summer in San Francisco.

Back on topic:  You're now up to date on us.  Thanks for dropping by and checking up on us.  Until next week, David
