THE ADVENTURE BEGINS

Geni and I will be working here next year, Yes we just got hired to work in the General Stores of Yellowstone!
We will be working and living in our Nations first National Park
This is where we will be working, next to old Faithful Lodge!
A massive log structure build in 1903 By the Northern Pacific Railroad.

In side this amazing Lodge is an incredible fireplace. Built with huge Rhyolite stone found nearby.
The two main ingredients are Lodgepole Pine and Rhyolite Stone.  One of the most memorable features of the great lobby is the monstrous stone fireplace.  Weighing 500 tons and reaching a height of 85 feet, it's nearly as spectacular as Old Faithful Geyser!!!
 

Five stories high of Huge Logs!



This is where Roscoe will be working, Yes he's going to be a grill cook

This is where Geni will be working as a gift shop host

We get to live here and get paid too! pinch me!


Old Faithful Geyser erupts about every 90 minutes, give or take 10 minutes, and it's height ranges from 106 feet to 185 feet.  The eruption lasts from 1.5 to 5 minutes, and anywhere from 4,000 to 8,000 gallons of boiling water is thrown into the air!  It's truly a sight to see, and you'll NEVER forget the first time you watch it go off!  Old Faithful Geyser is one of the most popular attractions in Yellowstone National Park, and once you see it, you'll understand why

There are hundreds of these small hot pools and geysers all around the Old Faithful area.
