Trip to Jackson Hole

Kerri and I decided it would be fun to go to Jackson Hole and visit my old boss Jim Webb. We drove up on a Saturday walked around a few of the shops in town and then had dinner at Jim's house and spent the night there. He made us shrimp and sausage gumbo that was really good. Kerrilyn even ate all her shrimp (the first time she's ever tried it). Sunday we went out for breakfast at Bubba's and then went to the National Wildlife Art Museum. The kids really like it. There was a separate area where the kids could color, do a puppet show, and put on animal costumes. Easton took a long nap there too while we were able to enjoy all the artwork. We then drove home and got to see elk near the road on a feed ground in Alpine. It was a long drive but a very enjoyable trip for all of us.

First Weeks of Shed Hunting

I finally got a few antlers the past few weeks. Here's some of the highlights.
Some scenery pictures:



February 28th I found my first antler of the year.







The sunset was awesome.



Colter and his family visited us the next weekend, so Colter and I went out for a hike and found a few more. There was a lot of snow still, so we didn't have as much luck as we hoped for, but we had a lot of fun and got some much needed exercise.














Here are a few more I found over the next few days as more snow melted.






Kerri, the kids, and I then went up to Idaho and stayed with her family for the weekend. I got to go for hike on Saturday by myself and found a few antlers, however, they were all old. The one in the video was the only one I kept.



The next weekend we went to Idaho again. This time Jeramy went with me to the same area I hiked the last weekend. We ended up finding 19 antlers including my best antler yet!
