Our Favorite Road Trippers!

We feel so blessed by our latest visitors to Jackson Hole - Frances and Hugh's Gram, Grandpa, and Great Grandmama! They drove from Chicago (Grandmama flew to Chicago from Tampa a week prior), so they experienced a mini cross-country road trip on either end (we so appreciate their effort!).

We packed our few days together full of sightseeing, laughing and catching up on too much time spent apart. It went by too quickly - as always - but we has a blast.

The album really isn't complete without a picture of the moose they FINALLY saw on their last night in town. I'll track it down, but in the meantime here are some of our favorites:

Paragliders run off the top of Rendezvous (I'm guessing Grandmama's going to try it on her next visit).
