Out here in Wyoming somewhere

Left Yellowstone yesterday and headed down through the Grand Tetons.  This place just keeps getting more and more beautiful.  Ate lunch at Jackson Lodge in the Tetons on a sprawling patio overlooking the valley where you could sometimes see moose, unfortunately not while we where there.  It was too hot in the middle of the day.  I love that it's 80 where we are, but when you look up we had a majestic view of snow capped mountains, the biggest I've seen yet.  I wanted to do the loop around the Teton's but the rest of the family was eager to move on.  I don't know what their rush is.  The girls think they are missing something special back home.  Dropped the rental off at Jackson airport.  Heading through Wyoming, drove for about 8 hours stayed at a KOA campsite.  The drive was tough for the old Rambler, Art is getting concerned she's not running well, we have no power, chugging and sputtering.  BUT, after a good nights rest at a KOA in Rawlins she's running like a champ.  I still camp believe we are still at 7,000 ft.  And once again Art had me up bright and early to hit the road.  We even took off this morning with the girls still in their bed.  We are branching off Rt. 80 to go North to Scotts Bluff National  Monument, then East on Hwy 2 to Grand Island which we hear is one of the top scenic highways in the country, we'll let you know on that one.  Until then, here are some more pics.
