President's Day Weekend

Hey we just got back from the cabin and had a fantastic time. We decided it was time to get out of the smog so we took off to Wyoming. Friday night was lots of work shoveling but it was nice to wake up to everything being done Saturday morning. We went snowmobiling lots and lots this weekend. First we went up the Greys river and found that about thirty miles up is the Box Y ranch. It was cool because the Box Y has a restaurant/cafe thingy that you can eat at in the winter with all sorts of yummy food and hot cocoa and stuff. PLUS there is this great tubing hill right by it so we are excited to go again soon. For the rest of the day we went up to Jackson and just hung out and shopped and looked at some of the galleries. We also managed to find a pretty good BBQ joint that was delicious.

The next day we wanted to go up to Yellowstone on our snowmobiles but I guess now there is a law where you can only go into Yellowstone in the winter with a guided tour (like 250$ each). Yeah right like we could afford that. So I guess we'll never see Yellowstone in the winter but the upside was that we saw the Tetons at sunrise which was beautiful!

Because our grand Yellowstone ambitions were squashed, we decided to do a little exploring. We found a great groomed trail with lots of tubing hills that has a hot spring at the top. With a hot spring in the middle of nowhere, naturally we had to go swimming. The only problem was that we didn't have swimming suits so we had to borrow some. Gross. I know. But it turned out to be tons of fun and the ridiculous looking suits made it that much more entertaining.

When we finally got home to the cabin that afternoon there were two moose in the yard, a mama and her calf. They were tons of fun and stayed around for hours and didn't seem to mind us at all so we took a few million pictures with them. That's it for our President's day weekend. All in all- a fun way to waste time.
