My friends Lil and Cheryl came out to Jackson Hole on July 31st. I know Lil and Cheryl from my four years t Pingry in New Jersey. They enjoyed a few weeks of Jackson Hole in the summer of 2011, and they were eager to enjoy more fun in 2012. While they were visiting, we touched a little bit of all the fun that Jackson has to offer.

One of my favorite parts of Sarasota in the winter is the Farmers Market on Main Street on Saturday mornings. I find myself sleeping late on Saturdays and then jumping on my bike and riding off to Main Street. After parking my bike, I enjoy the slow walk through the street as I check out the various booths. I stop at the popcorn booth for two bags of the best cheddar cheese popcorn ever (one for college football viewing and one for pro football viewing) and then grab a great outdoor table at the local cafe and enjoy breakfast while reading the paper. Lucky for me that Jackson Hole also has a Saturday morning Farmers Market around the Town Square. Lil, Cheryl and I found our way there on a beautiful Saturday morning.

While Lil and Cheryl were visiting, we planned a day of bike riding through the Grand Teton National Park. Beautiful sunshine, amazing views and a wonderful bike path made for a fun day with great friends.

With all active house guest, a hike to Jenny Lake is always in order. So one day we woke up early to beat the crowds and off to Jenny Lake we went. While at Jenny Lake we hiked to Hidden Falls and up to Inspiration Point.

Every group of house guest must also enjoy the Scenic Float down the Snake River with the Triangle X. It is a beautiful and relaxing way to spend a few hours. Everyone should take a float.

It was a real pleasure to host Lil and Cheryl again in Jackson Hole. I believe they are falling in love with the place as much as I love it. I am hoping they will be back again next summer to continue the fun. Of course, before Lil and Cheryl headed back to New Jersey, we had to make one run over the Grand Teton pass to check in with our friend Grumpy!
