The high school reunion was lively and gay

then we met with our friends for an Oakland zoo day

Ty tested out his old hometown bases

and we headed out east to old western places

In Jackson we tested the waters so blue

as we snapped our photos, the wildlife flew

We hunted for food with hot plastic cards

and hung out in front of old Mormon Row yards

The bison go green on the wide open range

while the elks run for headlights - we think it's quite strange

The sunrise is vibrant on Grand Teton peaks

but sunset's my weakness on rivers and creeks

Turpin Meadow Ranch put our boys in a trot

Both boys were proud of the trout they had caught

Even big daddy liked fishing by fly

but found his true happiness learning to tie

The chipmunks were talented showing their mugs

Mom was just happy with smiles and hugs

We weren't so relaxed near the Yellowstone pools

and faithful we were, feeling like fools

We left the week rested but eager to spa

At Sundance the art and food left us in awe

This summer trip was real fun, hands down

so we're starting to plan our next trip out of town
