The three main characters, known as the trio, have exciting times with friends and family as they turn eleven years old and enter middle school. Join the boys as they meet new friends and get involved in the school basketball team, talent show, and spring play.

Graham's father, being a math and science teacher at a local community college and having a great interest in history and geology, takes the boys, and occasionally friends, on field trips to Mt. St. Helens to visit and learn about the formations of the famous lava cave called Ape Cave, the lava castings at the Trail of Two Forests and Lava Canyon. Dad takes them to the Columbia River Gorge as he points out the geology, history, and native lore of the infamous Bonneville slide at Cascade Locks and the many great waterfalls, including the national historic Multnomah Falls, probably the most visited tourist attraction in Oregon beside Crater Lake.

Good clean fun for kids and adults of all ages.
