Hey, we are on our way to Jackson Hole, Jackson Town in Jackson Hole, Wyoming
0:09
We are leaving Cheyenne. We really enjoyed our time here. Cheyenne was a really cool place
0:15
And we are off now for Jackson. I love this drive. It is so beautiful. We're just starting to see beginnings of mountains and
0:35
although I'm not really looking forward to driving through the Tetons, I'm really excited to see them
0:41
because it's been forever since I have and I'm really excited to show the kids and Mark
0:46
this part of the country. So here is the beauty of Wyoming
1:00
So as we're driving through this big cloud on a mountaintop, I'm sort of having flashbacks
1:16
to our time in Iceland when we crossed a mountain range and it was like this narrow little two
1:23
lane road. Fortunately in Wyoming we've got really big roads with lots of
1:29
shoulder space and I don't feel nearly as anxious. I had like a full-blown
1:36
anxiety attack driving through that nice lift. This is nice and smooth. I'm good with this
1:46
Steep grade 5% next to 5 miles. Me too
2:26
I'm so glad they don't know what sugar is. What you say
2:39
So we're discussing how different the biomes are here as we're driving through
2:44
Wyoming and back that way it reminded me of Iceland and now we've been talking
2:49
about how this sort of reminds us of our time in Africa and how certain parts
2:55
really look like the Serengeti and just a minute ago we saw a bunch of little
2:59
deer walking around together in a big clump and seriously it was like straight back to Tanzania
3:05
and it's really cool. Season 20. I'm not in it. What was during season 20
3:15
Oh, that ass room. So we are three hours in, about 3.30 to go to Jackson
3:29
And we're in yet another lovely landscape. I swear it changes all the time
3:35
It's pretty cool. we're gonna make our right hand turn i swear y'all we have been driving
3:51
straight west on 80 for three hours today but um a total of 15 hours 15 yeah something like that
3:59
since we left home um and this is our one right turn i swear that's all we've done is drive west
4:06
but I'm kind of sad to leave 80 because I really love it
4:09
It's nice and wide and flat and it handles the mountains impeccably
4:14
and I'm a little nervous to leave it behind and go up 191
4:20
just because I haven't done it. So cross your fingers it's a little bit flat and not too scary
4:27
Okay, bye. There's a dinosaur exhibit here. I saw that. Run out So to add to the fun my screen and like my nav and my music and everything just went blank
5:20
The whole thing just went black. Which is the living daylights out of me
5:26
But it all popped back on and I don't know, maybe it lost..
5:31
I don't know what happened. It's really scary, though. And you also already had to get a new shifter
5:37
We had, so, on top of everything, the other day we were at Scotts Bluff National Monument
5:44
and we couldn't get the keys out of the ignition. And we ended up having to take it in and there's something wrong in the shifter
5:51
so they had to replace our shifter. And that set us back a day
5:55
And luckily we have an ESV, an extended service plan, premium care
6:02
because we do road trips and so it's, you know, helpful. So glad we had that because we only had to pay a little deductible
6:09
and not like $500 for a new gear shift. So anyway, yeah, I'm getting nervous about my car
6:18
Anyway, we're fine and Tetons are coming up soon. Oh, look at that
6:26
You do that dunkler and bagger up. So this is officially 10 and 2 driving
7:03
That's what happens when I get in the mountains. I don't think it's going to be white knuckle yet, but we'll see
7:20
This is the 90 lane of reinvent the wheel to make this video kit Oh my gosh
8:08
and so this drive has been significantly easier than i expected i thought it was gonna be like
8:25
just white knuckle driving through the mountains but it really hasn't it's been nice and easy um
8:30
the roads in wyoming are remarkable i it's so smooth easy to drive um pretty excited to get
8:38
So I shouldn't have said it was good driving
8:51
I totally just jinxed myself because as soon as I said that, we get into this stupid construction
8:56
which is why they have amazing roads. But it's all of a sudden, it's like, keep right, keep left
9:01
And you're doing all this and it's getting dark and it's all these reflective things in my face
9:07
Oh my gosh. on that. We've made it here to Jackson
9:22
We have made it to Jackson. We can't see. Here we are. We are going to our
9:30
hotel. Is this my street? Yep. So any last words? Yeah, this was a much easier drive than I expected
9:39
I'm really happy about it. And here we go. Hugs and kisses
9:45
Look, the people in front of us have Georgian stickers. Yes! Go dogs
