The Lamplighter


Here we are at the famous "Lamplighter" which is famous for Prime Rib! Randy and Joe
didn't seem to belive how much food they serve you. (Ray, et. al. didn't get to enjoy this because of weather)





To start they bring shrimp cocktail, then salad with bread, then spaghetti and ravioli, THEN YOUR PRIME RIB, after that a little ice cream. We all said, we don't want that much, but ate it all anyway. The portion show is the smallest prime rib available (they claim 10oz)

After our "little meal" we traveled around town in our loaner van. The van has a large "NO SMOKING" sign in it, the van does all the smoking so there is no need to smoke yourself. While touring the local pizza delivery lady stopped in the middle of the street and gave us a history lesson. She informed us that in Butte they mined for copper, gold, silver, moly and some other things I'd never heard of. Today they have the largest moly mine in the U.S. and it runs 24 hours a day.


Tomorrow...Olympia which will become our starting point for the Alaska tour.
