[Geysers] Beehive Geyser May 13

[John6151 at aol.com]

Greetings:

I made one of those geyser motivated impulse trips...left home on May 12th 
and returned on the 15th...had a great time.  The sun was out for most of Friday 
and Saturday.  I saw 3 Turbans and 4 Grands...I like that kind of 
ratio....two Grands even had 2 bursts.  However, I need to comment on the Beehive that 
erupted  May 13 at 19:59, just before sunset.  I was on the hill with Ralph and 
Donna Friz, Mike and Barry.  The "winter" bubbler to the right hand side of 
Beehive bubbled for 3 hours prior to the eruption but the wait was well worth 
it.  The evening was calm, the sun very low and Beehive's column reached at 
least 190 feet, some felt it was well over 200...we all agreed that it was by far 
the highest any of us had ever seen.  A rainbow formed that reached from the 
top of the column to the ground...it was incredible.  It made the whole trip 
worthwhile.
