Day 6: Wyoming

Explore Wyoming Day

I'll start off with this. It's sunny here:

Today, we got our money's worth out of Wyoming. We got up early (shocker) and went to Jackson Hole for breakfast. It was delicious. These menus never make you feel bad about yourself. You know the "healthy options" that you always feel obliged to choose from? Well, those don't exist here, so you always feel good about yourself.

After breakfast, we explored the town of Jackson Hole (see below) and then we went hiking! Golf and horseback riding were equally over-ruled. White-water rafting seemed a little over-zealous for a couple of car-riden sloths. So, hiking was the best option. Once again, we hiked far too much. 10 miles was today's total. I blame "Camp Disston" for my issues; Johnny, I'm not sure what your excuse is. 

The Hike: Our 10-mile excursion was BEAUTIFUL. And I will say this: Jenny Lake gave Lake Sylvan a run for her money. We were amazed by the views. It reminded me a lot of Maine (which Johnny is sick of hearing about) but the overwhelming pine-needle smell brought me to a happy place. Here are some pics:

For all those waterfall lovers out there, this is indeed a waterfall. We hiked an extra mile for it, so I hope you enjoy it.

During our afternoon post-hike beer-sesh, we encountered a pair of cowboys (literally, they had the hats and boots) that made Snookie look like Princess Kate. We were appalled by their heckling, but their accents kept us tuned in. It was the ultimate train-wreck as they screamed "Hootie-Hoo" to every woman that walked by, no matter the age. It was like they were herding cattle.

One comment on Western Americans: They like fur. I don't get it. Do you?

Now, we are praying that we can make it to Napa tomorrow. We emailed 4 real-estate agents to look at apartments. By tomorrow night (late), we should be in our new home!!! The drive is 13.5 hours so wish us luck and moreover, wish Johnny luck. Road Princess will not take this well. I'll update you from Cali! So much love. ~Road Chief
