Mikaela & Old Faithful

There she is finishing her ice cream at the historic Old Faithful Lodge in Yellowstone with Old Faithful steaming in the background.  We'd seen it go off once already that day and ended up seeing it go off 2 more times, once during our hike around all the geysers in the area and then once more just before we continued on our drive through the park.  It's still faithful even after that 1959 earthquake.

The Caverns

Close to the entry of the Lewis & Clark Caverns looking south.  The Jefferson river is below.
Looking back from the entry of the caverns to the visitor center.
Another place we visited while in Montana this August was The Lewis & Clark Caverns.  That was the highlight of our trip for the kids I  think.  They loved it!  We had a GREAT tour guide and Aunt Betty came along.  At 78 that's awesome!  It was HOT HOT HOT hiking up to the entry then we put on our jackets for the tour of the caverns.  We had a great tour guide who involved the kids in the tour.  In the last picture he's going through information for the kids to take home.
