Don't make it too early Summer, at least for Glacier. In 2011, the Going to the Sun road didn't open until July 13th. That was the latest date in recent history, but if you want to drive the road (and you should, or, at least take one of the "red bus" tours) check that the road is open. Lots of great hiking, particularly on the East side of the park.
For something fun & different, drive out to the Polebridge Mercantile on the West side of Glacier for a cinnamon bun or sticky roll. A great bakery out in the middle of nowhere!
One stop between Yellowstone/the Tetons that I like to make is at Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho.
