We didn't expect it to rain today so when it started we decided to go to the USF&W hatchery and to the National Wildlife Art Museum just outside of town. The hatchery is located next to the Elk Refuge and is responsible for releasing over 200,000 Cut Throat Trout each year in Idaho and Wyoming. Cool to see how little year old trout look. Then we headed to the museum which was much bigger than it appeared from the outside. An amazing collection of diverse work including one painting by N.C. Wyeth of bison in the mountains. This museum also encouraged visitors to try their hands at artwork. Sean made an origami bird, Drew sketched a Cut Throat Trout, and Dean modeled a Cut Throat Trout in clay. We also spent some time walking around town in the drizzle and then out for pizza at Mountain High Pizza (started by 2 guys from Carlisle, PA).
