gates of the mountains

we spent a day going to the gates of the mountains with my parents and my aunt jeannie and uncle marshall. it was really fun. you take about an hour boat ride in to an area where you can have a picnic. we saw 2 bald eagles on the way. it is a neat area, that lewis and clark called the gates to the mountains because the mountains look like they are opening up while floating on the missouri river. the kids had the most fun the 2 hours we were at the picnic area playing in the creek and dirt.
obviously will really enjoyed the dirt.
there was a water fountain that he could turn on himself, and he thought it was hilarious.
