Day 51 Jackson to Yellowstone... but not actually


Ok so today we were supposed to head to Yellowstone, but guess what surprise surprise Yellowstone isn't really a place you can do in about two hours only.  For some reason none of us thought this through too clearly (perhaps camping is getting to us), so we woke up really late, decided to go back into Jackson for breakfast (which is kind of the wrong direction in terms of where we were staying)... and eventually gave up on the idea of going to Yellowstone today.  We figured we'd go tomorrow, when we would have a full day to enjoy it.  We kind of bummed around Jackson all day, and then Kelsey and I walked around the town trying to find this bike shop, which in her words, "had a German sounding name."  We somehow ended up at a brew pub (?) that had some great stickers and we even found a vending machine for bike supplies, including tubes, tire levers (I think), and chains.  Crazy idea, but an amazing one, since if you need a tube to change out a flat but the bike shop is already closed, etc., it would be perfect. After dinner we headed back to the campsite to just relax and get some rest.  Granted, we've gotten a lot of rest in the past few days since we haven't been able to bike, but after 40+ days of biking, I don't think anyone is complaining...

Kelsey at the bike supplies vending machine... is this not the greatest idea ever?
