Yesterday, we drove to Wilson to hike the Ski Lake trail. The weather had cleared up and it has been mostly sunny and in the 60s- very nice! Instead of doing Snow King or another one in town, we decided to get in the car and go somewhere different since we had some time to spare. It was supposed to be a 4-mile,...
Happy Memorial Day! I bet the weather is hot and sunny in SC... We are still experiencing what is known as "mud season" here. Honestly, we lucked out with some good weather the first couple of weeks after our arrival, and now our luck has run out! It has been, for the most part, dreary and gray with occasional rain, hail, and snow. This...
Hello! Unfortunately, I haven't been doing too much exploring lately, so there isn't anything very interesting to post about. I have mostly just been working and living normal life. I am hoping to get a little time off this weekend to be able to do something exciting! We might make a trip over to Idaho Falls soon. I doubt that the town itself is...
Just thought I'd share some pictures... A sign right around the corner from us. Crazy dog coming out to stalk us on a walk. He was mean and probably should have been in a fenced yard! Sammie contemplating life at the top of a hill we hike up to regularly. Sammie pretending to be a horse and eating grass. She keeps doing...
Most people come to the Jackson area just to visit Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park. Honestly, before researching and becoming interested in Jackson, I don't know if I'd ever heard of GTNP, but I have definitely always known about Yellowstone. We visited GTNP in the first couple of days we were here simply because it's less than 10 miles outside of town....
On Saturday, we decided to hike up Snow King, the town's ski resort. (Not to be confused with Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, which is 10-15 minutes outside of town in Teton Village and where most visitors ski.) As far as hiking here goes, Snow King is probably one of the easier, more popular hikes in town and was a good place for us to start. It's about 2...

We have officially been in Jackson for a week now! It has taken me a while to post, mostly because I feel like I am either exploring a new area or running errands to buy all the little things needed when moving into a new place. This is taken from the elk refuge, which is right on the edge of town and has a...
On Tuesday, May 1st, we set out for the longest car ride EVER. We planned to leave around 7:00 AM... We actually left around 9:15. As you can see in the picture, the Prius was pretty loaded down! Shortly after leaving my parent's house, we actually swung by William's dad's office to drop off a few boxes and lighten the load. The first...
