Missoula Action

Here is a photo of me on the tarmac in Missoula. The plane was very little and amazingly they served free wine and beer.

We didn't know what to expect from Missoula - the terrain, the activities - though Caren had lots of plans, some of which we told her to keep secret. I am constantly amazed by the mountains and the evergreens. The people also happen to be very attractive.

There are also oodles of taxidermy, even at the airport. See?

Ok, so this morning we had some breakfast at the Hob Nob. Aaron and I split an awesome plate of migas. I've never enjoyed lentils this much. There, we got into a conversation with a little girl in Eagles girl and her dad with a Phillies hat on. Turns out, this guy's dad directed me in my 8th grade production of "Cheaper By the Dozen" at Cedarbrook Middle School. Given my love of coincidences, this was pretty bonus.

We then drove to Idaho for some hotspring action. About a 90 minute drive led us to Weir, one pool of hotsprings after a mile hike. It was maybe a bit too hot to completely enjoy the heat of the water, but we had some enjoyable conversation with the locals nearby. We also had some creepy encounters with a couple that followed way too close behind on the hike out. (You can see the lady in the pic at left, behind me.)





Here are some pics of the hike and the springs. Be impressed by the picture of Aaron, me and Caren in the springs, as Aaron used the timer on the camera and ran down rocks to make it into the shot.

Ok, now we are making pizza (sensing a theme?) at Caren's. Must get back to playing Jewish Geography with her friend Aaron.
