Grand Teton National Park & Idaho Falls, ID

We both were exhausted after spending two days in Yellowstone and decided to take it easy. Grand Teton National Park is connected to Yellowstone, and has a very scenic drive that takes you through the whole park. This is a view of the Tetons from a scenic pull-out.
Wildflowers!

Two hours West of the Grand Tetons was Idaho Falls, home of the largest fireworks show west of the Mississippi! We arrived 3 hours early and still had a hard time finding a spot along the river to view the fireworks. Most of the lawn was roped off by people who came early to mark their fireworks territory. It was quite an experience!The show lasted for 30 minutes and was synchronized to music via portable radios people brought!
