Drinks and coconut shrimp appitizers in Warbirds, the restaurant and bar at the Greater International Teton County airport. One of only two hot spots in town. On our way to dinner at a newer fancy place in town but Anne wanted to check her email. She has a new (read free) computer she has never used. So, guess who's teaching. Quite a challenge too. It's a PC! The Grand is jutting above the foot hills as bulldozers scrape new runways for the all the anticipated air traffic. Driggs is growing and getting fancy. Not only overflow from Jackson but if they put water on the ground they seem to grow golf courses!

Spent the day making a couple of dump runs with Anne. Years of yard accumulation and most of the interior of a 20 year old camp trailer she bought for $500. Started to move several piles of assorted lumber to a localized spot but ended up suggesting to Anne that she just have a bon fire with friends. Couple of friends over last night for dinner. Anne made chicken marsalla and a rice dish our mother always made for company. Laughter, local stories, future fantasy adventures....all under candle light and soft music. Washing dishes this morning much like on a river....water heated on the stove, rinse in an enamel bucket.

Tomorrow we leave early for Jellystone. Anne will dog sit.

Sure miss the Tetons - but sounds like it is getting bigger all the time. Can you still get away from the tourons? Oh, wait a minute, YOU'RE a touron now! :) Anyway, sounds like you're having fun. Say hi to Anne for me. Call when you're back in town. ~T
