Grand Tetons Later that day





The raft ride






A unforgettable raft ride

okay so it rained all night. It was cold and we had the heater on in the middle of June! I thought to myself. There is no way that they are going to take us on this raft ride. We had prepaid for this one way 10 mile raft ride down the Snake River. There was one other couple plus us. We got up at 7am to leave by 8. It was cold and sprinkling. We get in the van and start off to our distination. We get there get suited up and in the boat. We are ready for this unforgetable raft ride. We get going and all is well with the weather except for the fact that it is so overcast that you can't see the Tetons, that's because it's snowing up there. The wind picks up and it starts to rain. I don't mean sprinkle, I mean RAIN!! We were wet, cold and miserable. There was no way around it, we would have to just stay in the raft and suck it up. When we finall got to the end we were frozen stiff. We could barely walk. It took all day just for us to warm up. The weather finally cleared up and we got to see the Tetons.

Teton National Park

So we made it to the Grand Tetons. While entering th park their was this girl standing outside her Kiosk. Aron being the teenage boy that he is "thinks" she's a hottie. Dave askes her why she's standing outside her Kiosk and she says oh there's a bird in there. We drive off to find out cabin.
Later the next day Dave decideds he's going to help Aron out with this girl. He rolls down Aron's window and when we show this girl our pass he prceeds to ask her if she got the bird out of her Kiosk. While in the back you hear Aron saying "wrong girl dad." The girl was confused and Dave well he didn't care.





Jackson Hole Wyoming

Still June 9th in Wyoming. Making our way to The Grand Tenton National Park.
We made it to Jackson Hole where it was cold and raining. We stopped to walk through some of the shops and had some homemade ice cream. YUM!!
