Well we left Yellowstone Sunday morning after saying goodby to our new friends that we have been hanging out with at Bakers Hole we will miss them. We drove through the park headed for Grand Tetons NP. It was a beautiful drive through the mountains with a couple of slow climbs on the way, but the old motor home made it over the top, slow but it made it. We arrived at the campground about 2:30 pm and got set up in site 110. We took a bike ride and a guy on the road ask us if we had seen any Moose, we said no and he said they come through this campground every morning early. So we decided we would have our coffee looking for Moose this morning. We got in the car and drove about fifty yards and there they were right in front of us coming into the campground. Their were about a dozen people taking pictures so we got out and started taking pictures. There were four Moose, one big bull and one small young bull with two cows, they were all big and close. I took about sixty pictures while we watched them for an hour. The big bull was wanting some loven from the cow and she was having no part of it, when he tried to jump on she ran with him right behind her right through the crowd that was taking pictures, us included. I grabbed Lynn and jumped behind a car as everyone else scattered to get out of the way, our hearts were pumping. We were getting cold and the batteries were dead in the camera so we went back to the car and went for a ride to the visitors center. Later we went into Jackson Hole and did laundry, walked around town and had lunch. Tomorrow we are taking a boat ride across Jenny Lake to hike a wilderness trial to Hidden Falls (note to self, bring bear spray) here are a few pictures from the last couple of days. Boy this is a beutiful place. More news later hoping for Grizzly Bears next. We could hear wolves last night when we went to bed. See Ya
