Some more March Madness!

James and I had the opportunity to spend a couple of days in Kellog Idaho for a CES conference. We visited a gold mine and rode the world's highest gondola up to Silver Mountain. These are some pictures from the trip.

The mine we went through was so cool. It was amazing to hear how long and what work it took to get just a few inches through the rock. It's hard to imagine that it was worth it to those men. The mine did produce a lot of gold but the men dissapeared. Some think they were ambushed, robbed, and killed. Anyway, it was very interesting.







The gondola ride was pretty unbelievabe. It took about 22 minutes each way. Just as you thought you were approaching the top, you'd see another climb ahead of you. It was crazy.
