Swimming the Snake

We drove over Teton Pass to Jackson yesterday afternoon so the kids (and I) could swim in the Snake River. There is a place where the water flows into a sidelet (is that a term?) of sorts where the current isn't so strong. It's still fairly deep, and of course cold, but it didn't stop us. We put Owen in a life jacket and each of the kids had a "floaty" if they needed it. Drove into Jackson afterward for some victuals before driving back over the pass. We stopped at the summit for a break and quick jaunt up the trail. The mosquitos were large and thick or we would have stayed longer.
