Idaho Falls, ID-September 23, 2011

We waited until 2:00 yesterday for our mail to arrive. Note I did not say waited patiently. By then it was too late to leave, so we finally got on the road this morning. When we got to the Idaho border, it was as if someone closed the door on beautiful scenery and we were left standing in the middle of an empty football stadium with dead grass. The mountains went away except in the very far distance. We have dropped down to about 2800 feet in altitude, from 6800 feet at the Montana border. We like higher elevations. We have vowed to each other to never stay in Idaho again. We will only pass through going to a nice state. Approximately 25 years ago, I stated that Idaho drivers are the worst in the country. Nothing has changed in all those years except there are more of them. Thankfully the people at Walgreen's were nice and we were able to get a prescription filled. We are counting the hours til we can leave in the morning. We will get into Utah tomorrow which will be our 18th state on this journey. Fun!
WE MISS MONTANA!!
