The McDevitt sisters (Adele, Lorraine, and Dianne) and Cathy Kobren arrived in Jackson Hole on Wednesday. Any time the "sistas" are together, you know there will be a lot of laughter. It is easy to refer to them as the "Golden Girls", not because of their age, but because of the hilarious way that they interact whenever they are together. I am so happy that they convinced Cathy to join them on their visit out to Jackson Hole because she adds so much to the group. Having Cathy here also means that I am not the only one laughing at and with the "Golden Girls."
Since their arrival in Jackson Hole on Wednesday, the girls have been kicking up their heels and having a blast. Their first afternoon, they spent a few hours driving around and taking in all the beautiful fall colors.
It seems as if the fall colors are changing every minute of every day. It is simply beautiful here in
September!
On their first outing of their stay here in Jackson Hole, I was working at the ranch and the girls took a driving tour on their own. They enjoyed themselves a lot but had many stories to tell. Imagine my surprise when they pulled into the garage and started painting the bumper of their rental car! It seems that while driving the roads of the Grand Teton National Park, a log had jumped into their path causing the bumper to hang off just a
bit. It turns out that a fair amount of paint was also missing from the bumper. They were able to pound the bumper back in place and decided that a can of spray paint would cover the damage.

On Thursday, the girls enjoyed the historical walking tour of the Town Square and enjoyed a few galleries and shops. When I finished work, we enjoyed catching up on their adventures of the day and we prepared to attend "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" at the western playhouse in downtown Jackson.
We enjoyed all the fun of the playhouse and the actors/actress who also served as our singing waitress.

This morning (Friday) the girls headed out to hike and I had my final day of work at the ranch. My job has been fun and I can honestly say I am glad I took the job. It was fun to meet my co-workers at the ranch and to get to know them these last 4 months. I also enjoyed meeting the ranch guest and being constantly surprised at the "six degrees of separation" that really does exist in the world.

After work today (Friday), I joined up with the girls and we enjoyed a beautiful scenic float down the Snake River. The beautiful fall colors made this float trip different from the others that I have taken during my time here in Jackson.

We all worked up a good appetite with our busy day and were eager to enjoy a wonderful dinner at The Snake River Grill in downtown Jackson. The atmosphere at The Snake River Grill is my favorite in town. It is designed and decorated like a cozy ski lodge and the food is mouth watering good. I enjoyed the best Bison ribs I have ever eaten in my life. It is also fair to say that they were the first Bison ribs I had ever eaten in my life. The girls also enjoyed their dinners!
