June 21st, day 20, short and sweet to Jackson, WY.

so apparently its illegal to ride your bike out of Yellowstone so we were forced to rack up out of the park. which made the day only a 50 mile day. after a short climb in the morning is was straight and flat with a nice smooth downhill into Jackson. all morning the Tetons were on our right as we rode. they were soo huge they looked like they were only a few hundred yards away. when we arrived into Jackson at around 9:30 our sponsor Jill Quinlan met us at the church we were staying in and helped get us settled. she was a great sponsor for us and the teams in the past, she works very hard to get everything we do donated. lunch was donated by McDonald's, and after that we went white water rafting down the snake river. that was a cool experience to see the snake near where it begins because while i was on the rowing team at Washington state we rowed on the snake only it was 500 yards wide and moving so slow it was nearly standing water. after rafting we returned to the church were donated domino's was delivered and bed wasn't far behind that.
