Since it was such a wide storm, a picture just doesn't do justice:

This morning we visited Ashfall State Historic Park just south of Yankton. It had some incredible fossils from that resulted from various wildlife being covered by over a foot of ash from an eruption of a supervolcano in Idaho many millions of years ago. There was a building that covered some of the best fossils that were dug up about 30 years ago:
So now we're on the road to Denver so that the guests from tour 5 can fly back home tomorrow. This is my day to fly home as well, so I'll be back in Louisville tomorrow evening. It's been a great week meeting everyone and seeing some awesome weather!

Ryan, I thought FOR SURE you'd see a tornado this week! Loved the posts, though - can't wait for you to get home and finish loading up all the fun stuff from the last two weeks. I'm hoping to chase again next summer, so hopefully I'll get to see you then. You are so knowledgeable and I had a great time talking geeky weather things with you (well, more realistically, learning weather things from you). Have a great rest of the summer.
