It was well worth the extra 60km round trip back to the Craters of the Moon National Monument. The loop road led us round the different types of lava, splatter cones, caves and lava tunnels. There are black cones where very little vegetation has developed in the 2500years since the cone erupted up and other cones that are 7500 years old an in that time have become green all over (mostly with a hardy sagebrush) and even have pine trees on them. It is an arid and rough landscape and there are 750,000 acres of it!!  |

Hi Tim and Tim,
Back from PEI and send regards from Aurella and Jean. We had a duplicate of the Lobster dinner you guys had a few years back, but also got to taste Jean's Seafood chowder. It is worth the trip back to PEI. Looks like the trip is going well. Keep up the interesting blogs.
