Almost home!

We are at the rest area at the Kentucky/Tennessee border cleaning out the vans. We should be at school about 5:30. We've had a great time, but everyone is anxious for Franklin and our own beds!

St. Louis-almost home!

We'll be spending the night near St. Louis. We decided to go past Arrow Rock State Park, so we can go up in the arch in the morning. We will call tomorrow when we're closer to home.

Below you'll see reflections from all the students as well as our youngest campers. They were asked what they learned, why Yellowstone is important, and why it should be a national park. If you comment on them, we will make sure the students hear what you have to say.

Cheyenne--what I learned

I didn't know that Yellowstone was famous for having geothermal pools. This amazing discovery is enough of an explanation why Yellowstone National Park should remain a national park. Seeing Old Faithful was an awesome experience. I've never seen an active geothermal volcano in person. In the future, I would like to bring my parents back to see Old Faithful and Morning Glory.

Yellowstone National Park needs to stay a national park so future families and travelers can enjoy Yellowstone's various geothermal pools. They are like nothing else on Earth.
