After driving out to Moose Junction last night the only thing we saw were Moose-quitoes. We stayed around for about 30 minutes then decided they were not going to show up. Unfortunately, the poor moose missed an opportunity to see The Gaddy's from Tennessee.
This morning after sharing an omelette at Bubba's, we started west from Jackson on Hwy 22 for West Yellowstone. Instead of traveling due north out of Jackson, we thought going up through Idaho might be nice. We had been up that way about 20 years ago. It was a nice drive through the western part of America's bread-basket. The variety of green we saw from wheat, barley and potatoe fields was truly beautiful. The western side of the Tetons is pretty fantastic, too. We took a small detour off the beaten path to stop by the very beautiful Upper Mesa Falls of the Henry's Fork of the Snake River.

We made a quick stop in a few fly-fishing stores in West Yellowstone for Bud to check out what's rivers are producing the most fish right now . Then we headed on up to Gardiner, Mt. It was a really nice drive and much quicker than it has been the past few times we visited the park because there was no road construction. It is so much fun for us to drive these familiar roads and recollect precious memories of visits here with family and friends.
So here we are, eagerly awaiting 8AM tomorrow. The suspense will be over. We will have jobs and living accomodations and then the real fun begins.
