If you aren't religious when you come out here, you will be after you leave and have seen this place.~~quote from Jeff
We relaxed on Tuesday morning for the most part. We got some groceries and Jeff washed the RV and the jeep. We passed through road construction on the way in and both the Jeep and the RV were filthy. So, Jeff decided to clean them up.
Afterwards, we decided to hop in the jeep and drive to Jackson, Wyoming. Our plan was to get a hotel room for the night and go hiking on Wednesday morning in Grand Teton National Park. We ended up getting a room for the night at a bed & breakfast, The Alpine House, in downtown Jackson. We had dinner at Skyhigh Pizza and then explored around town. 
We had breakfast early in the a.m. Wednesday morning and then we headed straight to Grand Teton National Park. We opted for a hike from Jenny Lake. We paid for a ferry ride across the lake and then hiked to the falls, Inspiration Point and on to the lake. The total hiking trip was 17 miles. Our legs were so tired when we were done but the hike was worth it. It was definitely the most scenic and beautiful hike that Jeff and I have been on to date. We actually had to hike through the snow towards the top of the mountains. That was tough hiking. It was slippery in places and very hard to keep our footing. The lake that we hiked to was still frozen. But, we made it through the entire hike and recommend it to anyone who makes the trip to the Tetons. We saw moose and a variety of small animals on the trail.
We spotted a wolf on the way back to our RV as we drove through Yellowstone also. The only animal we haven’t seen yet is a grizzly bear. Unfortunately, a local man was attacked by one this morning as he was jogging in Teton National Park. He surprised a bear and her cubs. Luckily, he was not killed.
I also took a picture of this park sign (Below) in Yellowstone on the way back to our RV. Now, isn’t a sad fact that they actually have to post a sign telling people not to “molest” the animals!
