Title: Jackson hole Wyoming
Post by: Skandalous on December 20, 2013, 12:37:07 PM
So as some of you know Ive been in jackson wyoming sence last weekend.  Was supposed to be a nice skiing, snowmobiling filled week but my mother in law has been in the hospital from day one of our trip.  Apearently she came down with a viral pnumonia and currently has not been getting better.  Its so hard seeing someone so strong get hit with something like this that they cant even pick up a coffee mug.  Please put out some prayers and such for her.  Its been a really rough ride this week for my fiance and her family.

On the up side I do have some pics of the place here and if you have never been to jackson hole and you ski or just like the outdoors in general you should add it to your bucket list for sure.  Ive got 2-3 more years in the south ( alpharetta ) and we are moving here to be with her side of the family more and to raise our kids, when we have them.  The best part of it all is.......................Moab is only 8 hrs away and ive got amazing wheeling in Colorado and the west in general at my fingertips.  I also didnt realize I am marrying into such a big Jeep family too...They have 4 of various shapes and sizes  //LMAO//

Not for wheelin short a FS road but its nice for around town for sure.  They picked it up Dec 5th because their daughter that lives here didnt like the JK and took their Commander.   //LMAO//

This is what I got to roll in while im here.  My sister in laws but she hates it so I soon see it becoming my fiances..........or my DD  //peek//
Its pretty much stock other than the "flare" Fortec put on it, Bumpers front a rear that are actually pretty nice w/ Warn winch, Bushwacker fenders that will get removed and traded for some more practical ones, side steps that too will get replaced,  and a bunch of other non essential goodies that say Fortec on them.  Not sure if its locked or not but I dont believe it is. Its a 09 and only 33k miles,  gotta love the small town life.  Don't be fooled I LOOOOVVVEEEE my Tj way way more for the trail but having 4 doors for kids and going around town is just so much nicer lol.  Havent got to wheel it at all yet but the day will come.  Its fun to play in the snow though  //letseat//

Sis in laws new ride ( used to be her parents intown car but she liked it more than the JK ) Not my favorite Jeep by any means.   //no//

The last is a Old Beat up to he11 Cherokee 2wd not pic worthy lol.  Will have more pics up when can sit at the computer for some time.  Hope the weather is better in Atlanta thenwhen I left lol.

I'm sorry to hear about your mother in law's illness.

That jku would be nice to have!  You could probably follow some of the other JKs to the mall in that thing!

Hope she is improving. in my prayers.
I was in Jackson Hole in '07 when I took my daughter to JH, Teton NP and Yellowstone NP.
Everyone should do it at least once.

The uphill battle is over, its all downhill from here.  Dale is doing much better today,  the grandkids went and made her feel better.  Going to ski tomorrow with the kids and maybe get some snowmobiling in before I leave monday.  Here are a few more pics.

Woke up to this this morning.

There is a little pond down the road from the house that is home to a large flock of swans.  These are a couple flying over the house in the morning.

I will forever be GATR CORE no matter where I go best believe that  //salute// The only jeep club Ive been able to find thus far even remotely close to me is jackson hole jeep club lol.  They have been on a total of 3 outings sence their inseption in 2012.  Im positive due to the close nature of clororado, cali, arizona, utah, and idaho there are some more clubs out there just not as advertised as what Ive found so far.  Headed out for some skiing today,  it snowed 13 inches last night.  WOOT WOOT  //letseat//
