Yellowstone National Park, WY
Some beautiful views of God's world.
Bee Hive Geyser
This was by far the most impressive geyser. We were quite surprised when it erupted. We could feel the power and force even sitting at a distance. Old faithful is supposed to be the favorite of most people but we were more impressed with this one. It's interesting shape, in the form of a cocoon was neat to see. It was well worth the wait.
Some of the sulfur areas.....
Where the buffalo roam......

Crators of the Moon, Idaho
Located in the Snake River Plain in central Idaho. It's volcanic area represents one of the best preserved flood basalt areas in the continental United States.
We are walking out onto what was once fields of hot lava flows.
These underground tunnels were left by the lava tubes. After cooling in places, some of the service areas collapsed leaving tunnels throughout the area.
It was pitch black in parts of these tunnels. If you didn't have a flashlight you could not see a thing.

Glacier National Park, Montana
A very nice lady from Montana runs up to us and offers to take our picture. This is Montana hospitality she said.
The roads up through the mountains were tight. We left our Rv and drove our car up through Logan's pass. Parts of the road were under construction, with one lane roads in places. It was quite thrilling seeing all the beautiful snow capped mountains. With the snow melting it caused the waterfalls to overflow abundantly. The views were breathtaking. There's a place atop the mountains called the Weeping Wall. Water runs off the mountain's ledge at one point onto the road and if you had your windows down, which we did, you were given a refreshing splash of the coolest water.

Naples, Idaho
Blue Lake RV Resort
This little hideaway is tucked in the woods and off the beaten path. I just had to mention this place. There's nothing historical here to see but It was quite relaxing and nice. We stayed about a week. The lake was stocked with trout and catfish. It was a catch and release lake. Everyday we would head to the dock to see what would nibble at our hook.
The kids loved playing on the giant chess board and Dave and I got to catch up on our ping pong matches, cough, cough, mom is winning.
