We are on the move again.  We stayed over at Gros Ventre an extra day.  Darlie has not felt well for a couple of days.  She spent the whole day Monday sleeping.  She is feeling better today.  She even felt like going out to dinner tonight.

We drove over to Idaho Falls, ID. so I could get the truck serviced.  It was time for an oil change and fuel filter change.  They gave the truck a clean bill of health saying it was 100%.  After the service stop I made a stop at the local Walmart Supercenter.  It was a brand new store and very busy.  It is the first stop we have made for major resupply.  We packed about all we could from home before we left. The freezer finally had some room in it for new things.

We are parked at the Snake River RV park tonight.  It is a busy place and it is packed.  Our site is one of the tightest we have ever had.  My slide out is almost touching the awning of the trailer next to me.  We will only be here one night.

We have reservations this weekend in Dillon, MT.  It is the busy holiday weekend.  We didn't want to be left without a campsite over the weekend.  Until then, we thought we would drive over to the Craters of the Moon national monument here in Idaho.  I guess it is a large lava bed from an ancient volcano.  I know there are many hot springs in Idaho which is evidence of its volcanic past.

For my Florida friends:  the temperatures here are low 70 daytime and mid 40s at night.  Beautiful cool dry weather.  People around here are complaining about the heat.  I saw several people carrying fans out of Walmart.  I find all that quite humorous.

Beautiful yellow fields in Idaho.
Idaho is a very fertile farming state.  Of course we all know about the famous Idaho potatoes.  They are also a leading wheat producer.  We don't know what this yellow bloomed crop was.  The plants sort of looked like some kind of peas.
