A Day in Jackson

Barrie and Kasey and I went to Jackson today. We did a little shopping at KMart, and bought some groceries at Smiths on the way home. But mostly we drove around and enjoyed the scenery. We drove up the Gros Ventre to Kelly and on up to Slide Lake. It was a beautiful drive, lots of fall color, and we saw Buffalo.

We played "tourist" and I took a picture of Barrie and Kasey in front of the Tetons.

Just some of the fall trees we saw

I have never taken what I considered a successful photo of this barn on Mormon Row, but today the conditions were right.

It's great to travel with Barrie. I am usually the driver, and miss some of the scenery. Today she did the driving, and she is very good at stopping to let me take pictures. Also, when we got home, I brought one load of my groceries upstairs, and came up to feed the kitten. Poor little thing had not been fed for too long. Barrie finished unloading the pickup, even packed up my heavy cameras and bag!

The hole in the nipple on the bottle I got for the kitten was too large. I found new bottles today, and cut a hole that worked better. He ate most of his formula, but didn't seem happy yet. I let him loose on the floor, and he crawled around for a while, and found my feet. He tried to snuggle up,and started sucking on my sock. I fed him the rest of his bottle, "bathroomed" him, and put him in his box with his fuzzy monkey. He went right to sleep. I think the monkey is better than my feet for comfort.
