The alarm woke us early and we picked up N. At 6:00 a.m. Drove to the bus terminal and met the rest of our group —25 in all. The bus left Rockford at 6:45 am and we left OHare at 10:15 am. Arrived in Jackson Hole, Wyoming 3 hours later. Jackson’s airport is very small but has about 25 private jets parked near the terminal. Outside the terminal, we met our bus driver for the week, Donna. She is young, blond, a good driver and strong. She is driving a new, very large red bus. In Jackson we were on our own for a couple hours so grabbed lunch. Jackson reeks of money and opportunities to spend it on cheap souvenir items or expensive artwork. Met the bus at 3:15 and headed to Yellowstone. We climbed the Tetons and went over the Teton Pass. As we came down the other side, we saw large fields of yellow wheat and green alfalfa hay. They were getting ready for wheat harvest. We left Wyoming, passed through Idaho, entered Montana, had dinner, and checked into our hotel at the West Gate of Yellowstone. Have met some great people and are looking forward to a fun week.
