I went to the Craters of the Moon National Monument this week. This is one of the best views I saw while I was there. My brother and I climbed to the top of Inferno cone.

Nature sure is pretty, isn't it?

My apologies...

I'm working on re-designing my blog and updating my domain, but it seems that not as is going according to plan.  Sorry my site looks like it sucks right now.

I learned about Trident Submarines today. The ones in the Pacific Ocean are all based in the area - Bangor Naval Base.

"The 14 Trident II SSBNs together carry approximately fifty percent of the total American active inventory of strategic thermonuclear warheads."

These are cool, and they're all named after states except for this one apparently.

The Naval Undersea Museum on the peninsula is an interesting place to go, it's small, but it's full of some interesting history. It also came to my attention while I was there, that it's the bicentennial of The War of 1812.

Enjoy the new pics!

-Cheers!
