ALSO IN IDAHO...

one more reason for me to learn to love Idaho....always so politically correct...

Yes, that is an Indian..riding a Dinosaur. What more is there to say? We just had to take a picture~

On our way back from the our motel in Arco, (Arco was the first community in the world to be lit by nuclear power)...We stopped by Craters of the Moon and also the Shoshone Ice Caves. This fine piece of sculpture is proudly displayed at the entrance to the caves. None of our pictures turned out from the Ice Cave, too dark and cold!

EXPLORE IDAHO...AND LEAVE THE "REST" TO US

When Tyler and his brother have any downtime with work, they take their KLR's and explore all the places between here and there that they can. He is known for saying with a big sigh..."I LOVE Idaho" after he goes to all the beautiful places that so few see as they drive here and only see what is directly off the freeway. I have to agree, he has been some pretty amazing places. So if you've ever thought..."I wonder where that road goes"... here's a sneak peak....

If you look real close, you can see a baby black bear in the center of the shot. This is the 2nd or 3rd time they've come across wildlife like this. Maybe they should also bring some protection with them. You never know where Mamma bear is.

They've also come across countless Ghost Towns. Idaho was once a huge mining state and they explore in and all around these old buildings. They've gone into some of the mines before but turn around before too long. It gets dark in there real quick.

A gorgeous waterfall right in the middle of nowhere. Who else gets to see these places?!

I have to admit, Tyler is making Idaho seem more and more appealing every time he comes home from an adventure so excited about the places they went and the things they saw. Maybe one day I'll learn to love it just as much as he does....
