Eastern Idaho Early Iron Organization (E.I.E.I.O) in Jackson Hole

Detail shots of some of the vehicles on display.

EIEIO You’ve probably heard the saying, “They don’t build ’em like they used to”. No doubt the saying applies to the classic vehicles on display at the Virginian Lodge this weekend. I stopped by this afternoon to take a few tight images and details.

For this post, I am simply going post a few photos. If you want to read more about them, check out this Facebook link: Eastern Idaho Early Iron Organization (E.I.E.I.O) The poster on the page suggests this is year 42 for the event.

Early June Comments and Reports: Many of the roads inside Grand Teton National Park are open again. Notable road closures include Pilgrim Creek Road and the Dump Road, along with the southern section of Mormon Row Road and the pair of two track roads off the East Boundary Road. Recent rains have made some of the dirt roads muddy and slippery. Road construction on the new roundabout will start causing delays, and the section between the highway and Gros Ventre Campground will be closed for a week or so between 6: pm and roughly 6: am. High water recently washed out the temporary bridge over the Gros Ventre bridge on Spring Gulch road. The new permanent bridge may be completed by later in June.

Jackson Hole’s Old West Days Parade “in Detail”

Bunting The Old West Days Parade signals the beginning of the Summer tourist season here in Jackson Hole. Kids are still in school in many areas of the country, so parade watchers are often made up of locals and regional visitors.  The parade is just one of the many events offered to celebrate Memorial Day. Color Guard I took the normal photos of the parade, but chose to isolate small zones and details for this year’s post. I set up near the judge’s stand along the Town Square and watched for “smaller rectangles”. Continue reading "Jackson Hole’s Old West Days Parade “in Detail”"
