On Father's Day after a ginormous breakfast at the buffet at the Grill, we went on our next big hike to Taggart and Bradley Lakes.
Since Caleb walked in a stream in his boots the day before, they were still soaked and he hiked in his flip- flops. I am extremely impressed. He never said anything about his feet being sore. He used his flip flops for the rest of the trip, I estimate that he probably hiked over fifteen miles in them. When we got home, I probably spent ten minutes on each foot with a brush trying to clean the dirt that was embedded in his skin. Kind of gross, I know.
To illustrate the point of the love the Millers have for the Tetons, my husband is in fact named after Bradley Lake. I'm glad they didn't name him Teewinot.
We had parked the car next to the park stables and while we waited for Laura and Ellie (they didn't go on this hike) we took some pictures at the fence. Since we were doing official research, we had a paper in our car that allows us to park where most park patrons can't. I like that perk.

I looked at all three posts. Firstly, I want to go to the Tetons. I want to go to a lot of places and I just can't seem to make time for it all but Tetons is up there. I haven't been to Yellowstone since I was 4 and I have tried to plan that trip for the last 3 years. Maybe I'll be successful this time. If I do, I be sure to contact you since you seem to know your away around the West! It looks like your family had a great time together. What troopers! Good to hear again from you.
Oh, I was going to name a child teewinot. Maybe I will go with Owen instead.
