It's official; we are hicks. On Friday we drove out to the middle of the Idaho desert in an old Buick that broke down on the way back because we had run over so many rocks that the oil pan was crushed. Let me give you some advice: if you have to jump start a car, you probably shouldn't drive it on dirt roads into the middle of nowhere. You also shouldn't drive it so fast that you drive off the road on sharp turns. Thanks, McKay.
Our first stop was Brandon's doughnut. He discovered this doughnut while he was mapping shield volcanos for Geology and had been wanting to see it ever since. From an aerial view it looks exactly like a doughnut. Our second stop was Government cave. Caving was really fun, but Violet hated it and screamed the entire time. This is how Brandon rode on the way to the doughnut. He was so excited to see it that he just couldn't stay in his seat.

Yes, a great adventure. Not for everyone, but it IS an adventure.
Not the kind of adventure I'd recommend for a 9-month old. But hey, I'm just an old fart!!!
Funny. You might be a little wrong, though. It actually would have been nice if the signs led to where we were going, then we wouldn't have gotten lost (google maps saved the day).Lastly, Do hicks wear Chacos?
from the picture you took it looks like violet is right at home in the cave, you're going to have lots of fun with that girl!
looks like a crazy good time : ) i hope that baby had sunscreen in that backpack! need a hat too! the caves look cool! I've only been in one once! Have fun!
