One of our coffee makers, Jerry, was up before anyone else and had coffee ready for everyone. What a deal! It was so cute - he put in a filter then the coffee packet on top. Our coffee was "doubly filtered".

Our waitress was very informative about the surrounding area.
She told us about a place in Idaho that had square scoops of ice cream.
The waitress took the picture of all of us
Our joke for today was this sprinkler that was our own "Little Old Faithful" the way it was shooting up.

Stagecoach rides were available

Mel in front of some of the booths
Look at this cucumber grown in Wyoming! He called it a Wyomocuke.
The flowers and vegetables reminded me of things grown in Alaska. They were huge!

Donny purchasing bread for our meal tomorrow
Donny with the loaf of rye bread
We bought 2 onions - 1 red and 1 white. Look at the size they were!
Mel and Cathy had their picture made with the stuffed black bear.
We haven't seen one yet , but we were not giving up!
Note Mel's hand in a "bear paw" shape.
In one of the shops in Jackson Donny is helping Joe select a hat to try-on.
"The perfect look"
What would the cows think if they saw Joe feeding them wearing this hat???
The cows would be as surprised as Joe was when he saw the price tag!
Mel and Jerry with the cowboy statue in front of The Cowboy Bar
Inside the Cowboy Bar the barstools are saddles - very unique!
Donny suggested Cathy try on this "bear hat".
Maybe this would help to attract a bear ???
Time for an ice cream break
"What kind of ice cream should I have?" was the question to be answered.
Donny, Margaret, Joe, Jerry and Mel waiting for each one's turn

Cathy had apple ala mode in a waffle cone dipped in chocolate. Yum! Yum!
Jerry had bought the ice cream for everyone. Mel told Jerry that if he had known that Jerry was buying, he would have gotten more. Jerry replied, "Go ahead I do have some "change" left!"
A good laugh for everyone!
Grocery Shopping
The next day, Sunday, was going to be when we ate at the cabin. For breakfast we would have sausage, biscuits and hash browns along with fruit that was in our snack basket sent by Melodi and Amberlea's families for the trip. The main meal's menu included: appetizers of jalapeños stuffed with the Jersey cheese, grilled steaks, baked potatoes, salad, grilled corn and asparagus and rye bread.

Time to pay
After we arrived back at the cabin Donny marinated the steaks in the secret "Donny's marinade" recipe.
We came home to relax before our evening meal.
In one of the Jackson's stores a clerk had told Donny about a restaurant named, "The Mangy Moose". Donny made reservations for us to eat there that evening.

Prime rib was their speciality!
After a delicious meal and doing a little shopping we posed for our photo.
A fun and interesting day we had. Jackson is a neat town that offers unique items and experiences.
