Wright Reunion

Brian's extended family reunion was the same weekend as mine. He went to mine last time, so we went to his this year.

It started out in Jackson Hole, WY on Friday. We set up camp and then had dinner at a park in town, complete with clown for the kids. :)


Saturday we went rafting down the Snake River. We all did the tame float in the morning. Then Brian and Ethan also did a white water trip further down river that afternoon.


Sunday we went to the Grand Teton museum and all the kids started working on Junior Ranger badges. Then we went to a lake until it started raining.

Monday we packed up camp and stopped off to picnic and swim at String Lake on our way to our Yellowstone campsite.


Tuesday we saw Old Faithful and visited a lot of other hot pots and geysers.

Wednesday we drove and drove and drove in search of wildlife. The majority of what we saw, though, was the bison that kept stopping traffic by meandering into the road.


Thursday we packed up and headed toward home.
