Different types of bacteria can survive in different temperature waters and they give off different colors. Pretty Awesome!
As I traveled I stayed with people all over this world through an internet based organization called couchsurfing. I am now hosting people from all over the world in Denver. I met Florence through couchsurfing and it so happened we both wanted to go to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. After some discussion we decided to take the trip together and head to Moab as well. Following are our pictures of that trip. I must add that Florence was a trooper to put up with my bad cooking, her blisters, the lack of shower facilities for an extended period of time. She never complained and always had a sunny positive glow about her. She is an English teacher in Paris and is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Thanks Florence! Your a trooper!
