Since before I was born, my paternal grandparents have had a cabin in Mack's Inn, Idaho (outside of West Yellowstone). After my family moved to Utah when I was twelve, we spent many long weekends up there in the summers.
When Chuck's family decided to start holding an every-three year family reunion, I thought, Great! And when his brother planned this inaugural event to be held in Mack's Inn, Greater! It was so much fun to be in a place where I spent so much time as a young person. I loved it. It doesn't hurt that it's simply beautiful, has great weather, and my parents came up during the week we were there.
Here are the highlight photos. We played puzzles, went into the park and saw buffaloes and geysers, drove to the top of Sawtelle (Rhett was enamored by the "big ball on top of the mountain"), went canoeing on Henry's Fork and found a still-unidentified egg, played in the river, ran a race, saw plenty of family, watched a 48-minute-long fireworks show (no lie), and kissed a potato. Flying in and out of Jackson Hole was just the icing on the cake.
