I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, 
from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord,
which mad heaven and earth.
The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord
is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day
nor the moon by night
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil.
He shall preserve they soul.
The Lord shall preserve thy going out
and thy coming in from this time
forth and even for ever more
Psalm 121

My mother always said that Helen could not make it to the funeral, and that always bothered Helen. One of the times we were on our way to The Tetons and Yellowstone, we spent the night in DuBois. DuBois is almost so small that you could hold your breath driving the speed limit through town and then exhale after you evit the boundaries.

It is in a beautiful part of the Tetons - almost in a valley. I think they probably have a grizzly bear come through. I would love to live there, but if you need medical care in a hurry, the paramedics will helicopter you out to Wyoming Medical Center here in Casper.
If you ever go through DuBois, stay at the "Two Pine Inn
