Normally, I “plan” to stay out late for night skies. My wife sees me packing up and I tell her I am planning on heading out for stars. Occasionally, my wife modifies my plan when she reminds me of the party we are going to that night. Of course, weather can thwart my best laid plans.

Most frequent readers at Best of the Tetons already know I spend most of my time in Grand Teton National Park and the surrounding Jackson Hole area. It usually takes a little prodding to get me to drive through the Park during the busiest summer months.
My oldest son, Tyler, and his girlfriend, Laura, arrived into town last Thursday with Laura’s parents, Bill and Sally. Neither Laura or Sally had ever been to Yellowstone, and it had been many years since Bill had been there. That seems like enough of a prod! Darla and I became unofficial tour guides for a day.
