USNA 1973 Ride-2-Remember

Day 22, 25 August: Dubois to Riverton, WY

I wanted to mention that I had a treat when my wife Patricia and daughter Jacqueline joined the group for the past 2 days from Virginia and New York, respectively. Jacqueline had a wedding to attend in Banff and was already going to be in the West, so they decided to take a short vacation along our route.

They had guides for a half-day tour of Grand Teton National Park and a full day in Yellowstone. They saw a lot of wildlife that we tend to miss (see Doug’s post above).

They joined us in both Moran and Dubois and were delighted to meet the group, hear some “sea stories” and get a sense of our experience as well. They saw us off this morning at 0-dark-thirty and are winging their way back to the East Coast. It was great to see them and I look forward to reuniting in another 5 weeks or so.
