Lyn, Sheila and Sandi GTG

Today Lyn (SoCalGalCas) and I separately arrived near where Sheila (snowball) spends her summers in southeast Idaho. We spent the day with Sheila showing us the sights in and around Grand Teton National Park. We forgot to take a pic during lunch but here are a few of what we saw of the area where Sheila grew up. I can't imagine growing up in such a beautiful place.




A herd of buffalo spends its time grazing on land that was Sheila's family's ranch

Sheila lived in this house for a time


This area of Grand Teton National Park is known as Mormon Row and is frequented by tourists and buses of foreign visitors. It shows the early history of the area and the contributions made by Sheila's family to the growth and development of this beautiful area so we can now visit and marvel at its beauty and the hard work they put in. Thankfully the National Park Service has recognized the historical value of this area.

WOW lots of history there. Your pics are great and good to see Lyn and Sheila again. Looking forward to my trip in October of eastern Oregon an area I have not seen much of ....yet.

Gorgeous pics, what a stunning place to grown up! And how fun for a gtg, meet up and learn the place from a local!

Nice pics! Sheila took me to the barn too! So cool! Very beautiful area. Wish I would have had more time to see the whole area.

When Nan and I passed through and visited the farm area and Mormon Row what I thought was Wow, think about waking up everyday and going about your chores in the presence of such majesty.

I hope to one day go on the Sheila tour.

Great pics!

it was a good day totally enjoyed being with Lyn and Sandi...but a correction the buffalo
weren't on our old property... although the last time Sandi was with me they were...
that herd was big and the bulls were really big...thanks for letting me show off my area...one of
my daughters always said of the Teton's my TETON'S very possessive of them...

I knew the buffalo weren't EXACTLY on your family's ranch Sheila, but felt a few hundred yards didn't make much difference and the grass was just as green. Just wanted everyone to know what it was like.

Sheila, that's a strong possibility.... Weather dependent, of course.

WOW Sandi, thank you! Great photos. It is a gorgeous area and love that the barn is still there.
