We're still in Bozeman! This place is beautiful. The people we have met have been super nice and helpful. This morning we took advantage of the "Big City Free Continental Breakfast" at the Comfort Inn and then we packed up to leave. We went to WalMart and reloaded up our coolers and crates. That was a great experience. The place was awesome. The girl at the register suggested we visit Lewis & Clark Caverns so we did! We drove up to it and paid for the tour. It said it is 50 degrees in the caverns and there are lots of declining stairs. What they didn't tell you is that you had to march 3/4 of a mile up a 7% grade in 90 degree blazing sun to get up to the entrance. Yikes-a-roni! But we made it. And the caverns were very impressive. Jake was a little scared at first but he warmed to it after a bit. They are in the process of replacing the old lights with new LED ones. They started at the end and are working their way through. Boy what a difference! You can see so much more color and depth. Anyway, it was a tour hour tour and we were beat afterwards so we headed back to our camp.
We are camping at a KOA outside of Bozeman for the next couple days. They have free showers and laundry facilities and we need those! It is kind of like a hotel but you have to bring your own room. The boys like it though. As I type this they are marveling at the awesome sunset outside. There is a pool next to us and I'm hoping they close it soon. It is 9:40 and I'm getting tired!
We don't know what we are going to do next. Nikki and I are going to go check out the University in Bozeman tomorrow and I would like to see the Museum of the Rockies. Dan has to work in the morning.
Until next time, here are the pictures!

The kids and I are having fun reading about your trip---brings back memories for me. We used to stay in KOA camps when I was little. I probably stayed in that one! Have a great rest of your trip.
