We made it to Idaho Falls.
We left Manti, Utah around 7:00 yesterday morning and drove up Highway 89 through some pretty country with green valleys
surrounded by high mountains.
There were lots of nice homes along the road as well as small farms. It was quite a pleasant drive.
That all changed when we got to I-15. From there it was traffic and stress.
We timed it just right to get through Salt Lake City between the morning commute and the lunch time rush. There was still some traffic but it was manageable.
I just stayed in one lane maintained my speed of 63 mph. and let everyone else fight for the other lanes. I don’t think I had to change lanes more that twice the whole time.
Eventually we got through Salt Lake
and the traffic thinned out.
We arrived in Idaho Falls around 4:00
and got checked into the Snake River RV Park.
After a little nap and a call to Jo Ann for directions to their house, we drove the jeep to their place and only got lost once.
Jo Ann didn’t tell Dave we were in town so he was real surprised to see us.
We sat around Jo Ann and Dave’s for a while and as it was Dave’s Birthday we went with them to a pizza place to have dinner with some of their family.
When we got back to Jo Ann and Dave’s place it was about 45 minutes until the sun went down. Since the jeep doesn’t have working headlights, we left their place and made it back to the RV with plenty of sunlight left.
