Some notable events that have occurred since our arrival in May:

1. We have been Contra dancing.
2. We have hiked to a place called Inspiration Point.
3. We have attended a chuckwagon supper with live entertainment, and were graciously received as vegetarians.
4. I have seen too many moose to count.
5. Had bison in our yard and by our car.
6. I have floated the Snake River twice and got paid to do so.
7. Have seen Penn State fans in random places here. Go State!
8. We are intrigued by the low low milk and egg prices here. Get ready to be jealous... less than $2 for a GALLON and 99 cents for eggs. Whoa.
9. I ate (and survived) blueberries and huckleberries in my pancakes. I'm ready to tackle a gooseberry.
10. We joined a rock climbing gym. I totally kicked the Sponge Bob and Square Pants walls' butts!
11. Did you know that there are trumpeter swans and lots of ducks here?
12. We've visited Salmon, ID two times already this summer. It feels like a HUGE vacation from Jackson Hole's higher elevation.
13. My cookies taste better here. Don't know if higher altitude helps??

That's it for now. Peace.
