From Seattle to Wyoming...

It's time for a new adventure, and that means time for a new blog! I left on Sunday for Wyoming...I got off to a late start (and got stuck in some pretty horrible Easter Sunday traffic), but I still managed to arrive at Signal Mountain in pretty good time on Monday. The drive wasn't too bad, although I encountered a few snowstorms going over the mountain passes. Driving over Teton Pass was beautiful! It was snowing really hard so there wasn't much visibility, but every now and again I could catch a glimpse of the mountains (and also of how high up I was = SCARY!) I managed to take a few pictures while I was driving, although they are not my finest work. To sum up the drive: Washington-beautiful as I was leaving Seattle, and then just started to look like Nebraska; Idaho (the northern part)-really pretty; Montana-wide open spaces, beautiful landscape; Idaho again (the more southern part)-now we're talkin!!!; Wyoming/Grand Teton National Park- GORGEOUS!!! It took me around 16 hours, but I made it!!! I can't wait for what lies ahead, it should be an amazing summer!!!
The van is all loaded up...I'm ready to embark on my new adventure to Signal Mountain Lodge in Wyoming!

Hmmmm...so this could be driving through Montana, Idaho, or Wyoming...

Entering Grand Teton National Park

Not more than 10 minutes after entering Grand Teton National Park...my first wildlife siting!


I finally made it!!!
