Summer Plans Revisitied

Our summer vacation plans continue to wax and wane.  We had planned on a cycle tour in Oregon, bringing Mira's parents along.  Crater Lake-Bend-Sister-MacKenzie Valley-Eugene-Ashland.  You get the picture.  Well, turns out that will not happen.  It also turns out that we will not be visiting Japan.  So, the summer and fall is blank once again.  Current thinking is Guatemala in December--January for Spanish lessons and travel.  Robert has been once before and he knows Mira will like it.  Stay tuned.

Return from Yellowstone



We just got back in to San Francisco after our visit to Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. We took a two night backpacking hike into the backcountry in Yellowstone, where we relaxed, fished, and looked out for bears. After that, we checked in to our cabin at the Trail Creek Ranch, in Wilson, near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. We just chilled there, swimming and playing horseshoes. We spent one day in the Laurence Rockafeller Nature Preserve in the Grand Teton National Park. We did a very little bit of fishing there. Robert had dinner with Karen, Bob and Bryan Cottle in Jackson Hole at the Merry Piglet Mexican restaurant. One night we ate at the D.O.G. Himalayan Momo Shack, where the name and crowd is more interesting that the food. Then we packed it up and flew back home.
