We left Yellowstone and headed back to Jackson for my last day on the trip. I had decided

cloudy part way through the trip and became a bit chilly, but was a lot of fun. As we went
through "The Big Kahuna" all I could see was a wall of water in front of me at one point.
The kids weren't that excited, so it was sort of a low-key group. We did add to our
wildlife sightings with more Osprey, Merganser ducks, a mule deer, a beaver and a bald
eagle. A cool way to end my part of the trip!
A farewell dinner at the Gun Barrel Steak and Game restaurant and huckleberry ice cream from Moose's on the town square ended the day. Back to the East Coast tomorrow for me as Kelly continues west.
