Old Faithful Jackson Hole & Yellowstone





Thanks to one of Jason's friends who has a condo time share at Snow King in Jackson Hole, Wyoming we got to see the wonders of Yellowstone with our kids and our friends Sam and Megan Brown. I lived in Jackson Hole for 8 months be fore I left on my mission to France, so it was like visiting an old home, but being able to go back with my husband and children was like seeing it again through new eyes. We had a scary buffalo experience. While viewing the mudpots a herd of about 30 buffalo had migrated to the parking lot blocking the only pathway on both sides back to our car. It's not like we could just push through them, so after waiting for about a half an hour for them to disperse we quietly walked past them stroller and all, they were very lively and a few started to trott in our direction and I got a little nervous and called out Jason's name. Roman could sense my fear and started to cry. Whoops, I guess that is a lesson learned for me to put on a strong front for my kids. Later we went to the national museum of wildlife art and dined at the ever famous "Bubbas" barbeque. It was fun to have our friends with us too. It was like a little party at the 2 story condo with kitchen and two bathrooms, pool and hotub. We will always remember it. Thanks Clark.
