It was a gorgeous day! We had an 8am breakfast with the Product Partner from Prudential to start the day. (Carr Bennett and his family) It was HARD to get up this morning! We headed out to Grand Teton National Park today. We stopped at Visitors' Centers, drove between points of interest and got out and enjoyed the beautiful scenery all day-- the lakes are absolutely gorgeous with the mountains behind them. There are also a lot of pretty wild flowers blooming everywhere! We put our feet in at Jenny Lake and listened to interesting information on our Gaper Guide that Jones provided free for us, as we drove inside the park. It gave us information based on our location. Pretty cool!! We spent most of the day here and decided we want to come back and explore more on another day when we have more time-- it was Sunday today, so we didn't do any hiking or swimming. We want to come back to do all those things. There is SO MUCH to see!! We came back to the hotel and relaxed--the girls took naps and I folded the laundry I'd started earlier. We got cleaned up and went to the Jones Theme dinner tonight at the Spur Restaurant at the hotel here. (This is where we had breakfast this morning, too.) We enjoyed a nice buffet dinner and got to take some old-fashioned pictures with dress up clothing. They gave us the photos tonight as a souvenir. We got to try our luck with "calf-roping" outside with a plastic calf. It's really hard to do and our target was stationary! (Those cowboys last night made it look so easy! I have a new respect for them!!) Katelyn was able to rope the calf-- she actually got it a couple of times. She picks up on things quickly! We are back in our room early tonight because we are waking up EARLY (5am) tomorrow in order to get off by 6am so we can do the South Loop of Yellowstone in 12 hours, round trip. It's going to be a long but fun day again tomorrow. Today was a lot of fun as well. Goodnight!
