Back to Idaho then on to Wyoming

We didn’t go over the portion of Idaho that we already covered but we dipped down into southern Idaho to see some great waterfalls en route to Jackson, WY.

Upper Mesa Falls:

The waterfall is on Henry’s Fork of the Snake River.  It is 200 feet wide and 114 feet high.

Lake Jackson (or was it Jackson Lake?). We stopped here for a bit and enjoyed the lake and the side view of the Grand Tetons.  This was also the site of our next little set of accidents.  The lake has a steep bank with loose gravel.  First AG plotzed on her rump and then I did.  I took a bit more of a thud than she did but neither of us were hurt.  The camera got a scratch or two but no worries.

So…where am I as I am writing this?  Florence, Kentucky. We drove through Chicago today.  Can you say "bad idea"?  It took us 3 hours to just get across Chicago.   I *may* have said some unladylike things…maybe.

We hope to be in North Carolina by tomorrow night.
