2 the number of scenic river valley we drove along: Logan & Snake Rivers;

4 lakes: Bear, Lewis, Jackson, and Yellowstone;

2 National Parks: Grand Teton and Yellowstone;

1 spectacular mountain range.......of course, the Grand Tetons;

2 number of cities in Wyoming with elk antler arches: Afton and Jackson;

3 number of times we crossed the Continental Divide;

3 number of times we were stopped by flagmen because road construction necessitated one-way traffic;

1 the number of times we got lost and needed to backtrack slightly;

0 the number of times we had angry words with each other

9 the number of fingers in a great new condiment we found here....Ninefingers Montana Westery-style mustard;

425 miles driven yesterday, in spite of all of the above, and including having rain about 80% of the time yesterday;


There you have it, Sunday by the numbers. Also, we so enjoyed reading all of your messages and comments; was a highlight of our evening. So whenever you want to, please respond. Feels like a little bit of home wherever we are.
