Chuckwagon

When we checked in last week, we asked about places to eat and asked about the Chuckwagon. The woman at the desk said, " You want to eat at the Chuckwagon?" like it was a stupid thing to do. But we found Dornan's chuckwagon down by the tackle shop we use. Although it was expensive, it was neat because they cooked everything over a charcoal fire in big pots.

They served beef stew, barbeque short ribs, steak, baked beans, mashed potatoes, salad, blackberry cobbler. They also had a choice of barbeque chicken as well. The chuckwagon had beautiful views of the Tetons in the background.
After dinner, we drove down Wilson Road which is a narrow winding road through the woods. We saw a cinnamon colored bear (ran like a black bear and not a grizzly) that ran across the road in front of us. We also saw 3 swamp donkeys (moose) that were in the pond. It was getting dark so the picture is dark. We also saw herds of elk driving back into the park.
