Nice Tetons

After LOTOJA the family stayed a couple nights with my aunt and uncle at their place in Teton Village. Thanks Pam and Gary! I can't wait to invite myself in December. We spent a lot of time just relaxing but did get in a few favorites like eating at Mile High Pizza, walking around Jackson Hole, and a Gondola ride up the mountain.
Everyone but Elder Mikey the day after the race.
Here we are riding up the mountain on the Gondola. The new tram looks like it will be ready to open about the time the snow flies.
Lily loves seeing her mom walk up.Up on top of the hill, or the mid mountain lodge. Jack was less interested in the photo op and more interested in . . .
picking up rocks
and trying to throw them into the river below (while we held onto his collar to prevent any tumbling down the mountain).

The drive home was surprisingly quick and easy. We stopped in Afton and I was excited to hit Rulon Gardner's Burger Barn. That guy looks like he knows a good burger. Well he may know one but certainly doesn't make one. The Gold Medal and Farmer's Wife Burgers were a total disappointment. Not driving by that Subway again! I chose not to make a scene though. I was reminded that there may or may not be a warrant out for my arrest in Afton. We can't quite remember what happened with the speeding ticket from 2006.
