Yellowstone Trip: Jackson Hole & Bar J Wranglers


In Jackson



We went to Jackson on our honeymoon for a day.. and now here we are 17 years later


Lindzi loved the stagecoach ride



We went to see the Bar J Wrangler show... here are a pair of horses called Bert and Ernie



this is the only moose we saw on the trip... but it's fake :-)


waiting for dinner and the show.... we got there early because we were told it's best. So while John waited for the tickets...we played and looked around. The tickets are first come first serve... so if you want a good seat.. show up early. We got the third row... so not too bad. While we were waiting.. by now me and the girls were in the mohome chilling... a crazy thunderstorm rolled in.. complete with rain, hail, thunder and lightning. It didn't last long.. thankfully, but it was kinda cool too.


after the dinner


and the show! It was quite entertaining!


Here are the girls petting the horses again.

After the show it was nearly ten o clock.. so we drove to John's Dad's house and spent the night. We had breakfast with the family and chatted, then headed for home!
