Day 4 (July 24, 2010)
When we woke up in the morning, we went into the caves. It was so weird. It was totally warm outside and the second we hit the caves, we cooled down a ton. It was super dark in the caves and kinda creepy, but I was glad to be with 3 big, strong men. Once we got deep enough into the cave, I started slipping on ice... yes, ICE! Can you believe it? The middle of summer and there's ice just a few hundred yards into the cave! I mean, that's so amazing! This is how the people lived back in the day, before houses and air conditioning and running water. It reminds me of Mexico and the cenotes. I mean, these natural things are amazing. The world has them everywhere. And then, on this same day we drove up to Yellowstone and spent 3 days looking at so many more wonderful natural wonders of the world. Wow, this world is truly amazing. And to think... the Celestial kingdom will be even better. Actually, the Telestial kingdom (the lowest kingdom of heaven) is going to even be so much more beautiful and amazing than this earth. WOW! God is so good.
After admiring the caves for an hour or so, we packed up our stuff and hit the road for Yellowstone. Our first stop inside of Yellowstone National Park was Celestine Pool. It was very cool. If you don't think so, then you're a fool. Okay, I'm done. Anyway, it was awesome for real. It's like this big huge, steaming, clear, blue pool in the middle of nowhere. I don't get it. How does that happen? Well, it does, and I'm just glad I got to see it and experience it in my life.
The next stop was the Old Faithful Inn. We didn't actually see Old Faithful... just the inn. But they had delicious ice cream! And the building was cool. There were all these weird stairs going up in different directions. And you can see them all from down below. But they don't let people up to the top anymore, I guess it's a fire hazard. But we got to go up to the second floor and sit on a cool bench to eat our ice cream and admire the structure. But Mikey totally missed out. He decided to sleep in the car and when he woke up later and found out we ate ice cream without him... he was upset. *giggle* Oh, the anger of a fat man :-) I love you, Mikey!
We decided to keep the site seeing short this day, so after the Inn we headed to our camp to set up the tent and start dinner. We decided to follow the directions on the tent bag this time and the tent turned out much more stable. It was great!
