We Love Idaho!

Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday September 10, 11, & 12, 2013

We continue to make our way through Idaho this week and are truly enjoying every minute.  What a beautiful state!  We are driving about 200 miles each day so I haven't had much time to write at days end.  The routes are often through the mountains so our days are full and by the time we find our campsite, set up and grab a bite to eat, we're done. 
We are just amazed by the beauty we see every day and never knew there were so many different kinds of mountains. Tree covered, bald, rocky, brown, red, blue, green, sagebrush covered....it's just fun going around the next curve to see what's ahead.
For the most part, we are choosing backroads (sometimes that's all there are) but we have also gone through cities more populated like Ketchum, Sun Valley and Hailey.  Lots of money in some of those areas; huge homes, fancy golf courses, etc.  We stayed in Bellevue, south of Hailey, because there were no RV resorts that accepted tents. 
:(
One more day before our next big stop and that will be Jackson, WY and the Tetons.  From there, into Yellowstone National Park.  We plan on saving a good week and a half for those areas. It's hard to believe we're 30 days into this trip and by the 24th or 25th we'll be heading for home.
We'd like to say a special "Happy Birthday" to our sister-in-law, Lynnie, today.  We love you, hope it's the best and can't wait to see you in a few weeks!  Happy trails.

It's so hard to believe it's been 12 years since 9/11. In many ways, it seems like yesterday. We can never forget...

God Bless America.
