We did a little bit of everything today. I washed clothes, shopped and beautified myself while John fished. When he got his fishing license, John asked the clerk if he could recommend some flies. This guy knew his stuff! The flies John bought are odd looking for flies but they work! He actually caught four trout and has a fish story about the really big one that got away!
Mid afternoon we decided to drive all the way and check out the north end of the Grand Tetons. We drove through Colter Bay Campground and decided we liked the one we are in better. Then we stopped at Jackson Lake Lodge where they have a great view of Jackson Lake with the mountain back drop but the lodge was not anything to brag about. Signal Mountain has a nice marina on Jackson Lake and the drive to the top of Signal Mtn. was nice with impressive views of the sage brush valley. The rest of the drive down Teton Park Road was uneventful but took longer than we thought. Still, we got back in time to eat a quick dinner before John took off fishing again.
I met a nice gentleman at the water station who has hiked the Grand Canyon. We may have to invite them over to tell us more about what to expect. Also, our friends from Lees Summit flew in today so we have extended out stay so we can do some stuff with them.
