This was our trip to Wyoming to see mountains, to hike and to read books. We cleverly decided to stay in Philadelphia the night before so we wouldn't have to get up too early in the morning and so parked the car
and once the Fed Ex truck left
we noticed the movie across the street
and then made our way to Sfizzio's
where Martha
Willa
and Sam were waiting
as Ben
and I (in this self portrait) arrived
and were joined by Suzanne
who ordered this glass of wine
to go with my martini
as the excellent bread
and eggplant appetizer arrived
before Sam's calamari (which needed 2 pictures)
and Willa's salad
and Martha's salad
and Suzanne's salad arrived
soon to be accompanied by my pizza
Suzanne's main course
Martha's pasta
Ben's (best I've ever had) gnocchi
and Suzanne's antipasto
which amused our waiter
as coffee was served
and after a visit to the parking meter, we made our way to Martha's apartment
and came in to see Sam and Willa on the couch.
After warm farewells, we headed to our hotel where Ben checked out the beds
and Suzanne adjusted the air conditioning.
Next morning we were up very early so that Ben could have cereal for the hotel breakfast
as Suzanne had her coffee
and I had this bagel
and took this self portrait.
Once at the airport, we discovered that our plane was delayed for 2 hours (so that we would miss our connection from Salt Lake City to Jackson) and not even Einstein about whom I was reading could fix the situation
but we were served this Enjoy! package by Delta
which when opened looked like this
as I admired the scenery
and Suzanne and Ben ate up
as we were served Dasani
and then given this choice
with more Dasani
before we approached Salt Lake City to land over the Great Salt Lake.
Once on the ground, I took the obligatory phone booth picture with Ben
and then we went to Hertz
where they rented us this car
for our drive to Jackson and while we were approaching the Utah/Wyoming border, Ben took these pictures outside the car
|
and these inside the car
|
plus an artistic picture
this price sign from a gas station
and a few more road pictures
before we got off at Evanston and recorded our first Wyoming license plate
at the Legal Tender restaurant
where we decided not to eat because we saw Wally's Burgers across the street
and liked the menu
before noticing this wonderful device with user friendly interface in the bath room
and while we won't be there for the Uinta County Fair
we were happy when the tray of food arrived
and the price was satisfying
as I dug into my burger.
Down the road we stopped in La Barge for a bath room break here
but first took the obligatory phone booth picture
and then recorded this sign for the bathroom collection
and as Ben and Suzanne showed off our purchases
we got ready to drive on to Jackson where we stopped here to get our key
and then entered the condo where we will be staying and noted Ben's room
and the stove we will seriously not need
not to mention the snow shoes we won't need
but we settled in
and wondered how we could invite enough people for dinner to fill the table
before we recorded kitchen
and bathroom and then decided to head into Teton Village for dinner.
We liked the sign at the Mangy Moose
and so went in
where Suzanne
and Ben were happy
and this pina colada
made me happy in this self portrait
so that I could get a better picture of the pina colada.
This was Ben's salad from the salad bar
while I tried to get a picture of the moose with the blinking eyes across the room
and Ben's chicken arrived
with Suzanne's salad
and my Mexican salad
as we recorded Suzanne's salad one more time
to accompany her glass of wine
and then had a pleasant conversation with Katelyn J, our waitress, about her desire to leave Bozeman to go to Manhattan and called it a night.
