DINNER WITH CO-WORKERS, VIOLENT WEATHER AND MORE WILDLIFE (updated 8/17)

On Friday of last week, we met two other couples we work with for dinner in Teton Village, the ski resort about 10 miles west of Jackson.  Ron and Karen Royer are our bosses and are from Southern California.  They have the campsite next to us at the Gros Ventre Campground.  Dick and Sheri DeBernardi are from Rock Springs, Wyoming, a town about 175 miles south of Jackson.  Dick and Sheri are the couple who took us on the boat tour of Jackson Lake a few weeks ago.  
Heading towards Teton Village, we were about 2 miles from our campground when we saw this coyote about 40 yards from the road.  At first we thought it might be a gray wolf, but wolves travel in packs, and there were no other animals in sight.  Not a great photo, but the coyote was  over 50 yards away in the meadow.

On the way to Teton Village from town, we encountered a violent thunderstorm.  This picture was taken from the road near Teton Village.  We think this double rainbow has more vibrant colors than the one we photographed about a month ago.

Here we are at the Mangy Moose in Teton Village.  Karen took this photo.  Dick has his back to the camera, Sheri is sitting next to him and Ron is on Sheri's right.  Great people, good coversation and a full stomach resulted in a fantastic evening.

We have moved around the table and had another guest take the 2nd picture.  Karen is the lady in the blue dress at the end of the table. 

Dinner was good so we will need to add the Mangy Moose to our list of restaurants to re-visit before our summer ends.
