My boys came with us for the first time.  It was a new experience to have a
crew.  It was great!  We stayed at the Nevada Landing Hotel & Casino next to
base camp.  Having a shower, bed and buffet meals will definitely spoil me
for the next ride.
The ride itself was casual and a lot of fun.  Claire Toomey is really sweet.
 She certainly has a positive attitude about rocks.  
Many thanks to Kim, Richard, Elaine and especially George for helping us out.
