Headed to Colter Bay Wednesday morning. Aided by Shawn’s Disabled Veteran Card we get $9/night camping in a great site with Mountain glimpses and a short walk to Jackson Lake. It's definitely more cost effective sharing expenses with 2 other people. The three of us hiked the 9 miles to Hermitage Point Wednesday afternoon. My new hiking shoes gave me an odd blister on my heal so I'll wear my sandles for a few days.
This morning Shawn and I bicycled to Jackson Lake Lodge and back to Leeks Marina - not more than 15 miles but fairly windy and uphill. I think I'm getting a little more fit but avoiding the scales can be deceptive. This evening we met Cal at the UW/NPS Research station for a seminar and BBQ. The topic was quite dry but the people were very friendly and the location right on a point facing the Tetons. It was previously a hunting lodge, bought by the NPS in the ‘70’s. Apparently the décor hasn’t been changed since.
It’s now becoming apparent that Shawn and I are more compatible than Cal. He likes to smoke and drinks more than us. He’s a great guy, just on a different path. Shawn and I will head to Jackson this weekend without Cal.
Friday morning we’ll go back to the Research Station as they let us leave Shawn’s car and my motorcycle there over the weekend so we can take just one car to Jackson.
