Jackson Hole, WY

We left Vernal, Utah, today, to head for Jackson Hole, Wyoming! As we neared Jackson Hole, the pretty mineral-colored cliffs of Utah transitioned into some wiiiiidde open green terrain! We loved it! The sky was enormous and deep blue. We saw lots of Pronghorn, too! Couldn’t miss those white butts in the middle of sage and green undergrowth!
When we caught site of the Rockies, we were blown away. Boy, we didn’t know what was waiting for us in the Tetons ;o)
Jackson Hole is the cutest town! Lots of specialty shops, and almost no chain stores at all. I was very happy to see that. We pretty much just made it to our bed and Breakfast, the Alpine House, and dinner. Our desk clerk, JD, was very good at recommending a place to eat, as well as which local specialty entrees and desserts the restaurant served. He made us reservations as we settled in and freshened up, and then we were off to the Blue Lion!
Corey had the NY strip with peppercorn, and I ordered the Thai Linguine with Shrimp. Corey had the better dinner, but the linguine was still terrific! We decided to pass on the signature lamb dish –we aren’t been fans of mutton. However, we DID go for the dessert that JD mentioned, and it was TASTY! We got the Russian Crème with raspberries. Light and yummy: that’s how we like it!

And then…. We read for a little while in the cozy little parlor, and then went to bed.
