Yellowstone/Grand Teton Vacation Review, Day 4 – Old Faithful Snow Lodge and Family Inn Restaurant

We managed to get out of our room at Jackson Lake Lodge by the 11:00 a.m. checkout time. This got us downstairs and outside in time for the raptor show being put on by the Teton Raptor Center. Although we missed most of the programs like this, the Jackson Lake Lodge appears to host many […]

Rappin’ for Jesus – Church Video Fails – ‘Jesus Christ is my Nigga’

Given the rapid decline of young people interested in church or formal religious services, I understand why some ministers would look for creative ways to keep church youth interested in the program. Here’s a tip: rapping for Jesus is not the way for a white middle-aged pastor to reach young people. At least not in […]

Idiots in Nebraska want Teachers in Shootouts with Students

Demonstrating a level of intellect only seen in state legislators and suicidal lemmings, Nebraska state senator Mark Christensen has introduced a bill into the Nebraska state legislature to authorize teachers to carry concealed handguns in schools. Apparently Senator Christensen feels that arming teachers to gun down students will help keep the students safer. I would […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 10 – Jackson, Snow King Lodge, Jackson Town Square, 4th of July Parade, Snow King Mini-Golf, Town Square Shootout, Jackson Hole Rodeo and Fireworks

Our first night sleeping at Snow King Lodge was great. Although I stayed up late as always, I fell asleep quickly in the big comfortable bed. Out of the entire trip, the beds and pillows at Snow King Lodge were the best. I probably could have slept through the entire morning had I not been […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Vacation Review, Day 3 – Jackson Lake Lodge, Stargazing, and Colter Bay Village (CBV) Dinner Wagon Ride

Day 3 of our trip started late because we had stayed up so late stargazing. The view of the night sky over Grand Teton from Jackson Lake Lodge is simply staggering. To get the full effect, you will need to stay up very late. It is also helpful to download one of the astronomy apps […]

Worst Wedding Day Video

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 7 – Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel, Mammoth Springs Dining Room, Albright Visitor’s Center, and Stops on the Way to Signal Mountain Lodge

Although the Mammoth Hot Springs Hotel was quiet during the night, the hallways were rather noisy in the morning. This was not due to unruly guests, but due to the hotel’s design. The hallways are long and solidly built, but with high ceilings and widely spaced walls. The tunnel effect seemed to amplify sounds, making […]

Yellowstone/Grand Teton Review, Day 9 – Signal Mountain Lodge, the National Museum of Wildlife Art, Jackson Square, Moos, and the Snow King Resort

I woke up just before 5:00 a.m. and watched the sun rise from our cabin window. They do sunrises and sunsets very well at the Signal Mountain Lodge. The morning sky was cloudy, which made the sky look all the more impressive. We cooked breakfast in our room again, taking advantage of the last time […]
