Craters of the Moon, Idaho

 We got to Craters of the Moon today.  Not at all what I expected.  Lots and lots of lava flows and lava rock.  We stopped in at the visitors center to buy the obligatory key chain and I asked the ranger where is the best place to take a 4 year old.  She directed use to Indian Cave.  It could not have been a better suggestion.  Gavin had such a good time he found some snow and enjoyed climbing over the rocks with the grace of a mountain goat. No bumps no scrapes (well maybe a few) but not tears.   The walk was about 2 miles and the wind was fast and furious.  It got cold by the time we got back to the car.  Before we could get out of the park about a 15 minutes drive he was out cold.
