My friend Dave recently called us from the Tetons to report he had returned to the "motherland." I thought this term fit so well - we just can't stay away from those beautiful Wyoming mountains, and everytime we return it does feel like going home to the motherland.
We just returned from our annual family camp-out and desipite the constant rain it was a success. We spent the four days throwing rocks in Jackson Lake, looking at the mountians, visiting any visitor's center that was open, watching storms move in across the lake, cooking out, hiking, visiting with friends, lounging at Jackson Lake Lodge, watching the kids dig in the dirt, wading in String Lake, and relaxing. Insert ran from the rain between each activity and you will get a general feel of how the vacation really went. We did learn that our tent is about 95% waterproof and the towels we brought for swimming managed to tackle the other 5%. We can't wait for next year--we might have to go back in the winter and do some cross-country skiing with the kids.
