We are so enjoying seeing the mountains and the snow on top of the mountains. So different than Houston where I called the Houston mountains "overpasses". Here is the first mountain range we saw after we left Alamosa, CO. These mountains are just amazing to watch, I took a lot of pictures so hubby could see them when he was finished driving. He focused on the roads, making sure Big Red 2.0 (our truck) would pull the 5th wheel. Which it did with ease, in my opinion. I knew that the Rockies where in CO but didn't realize we would be driving over them. Here is a sign that I had to take a picture of to prove that we did go over the Rockies pulling the rig. The sign reads, "Top of the Rockies". I just thought that was so cool. While navigating, I saw a flashing sign that read, "vehicles above 13'11" use alternate route", we think we are below 13'11", but didn't want to be "that guy" stuck in a tunnel, so we took the alternat...
First, let me catch you up on the rest of our trip. We didn't have good internet signal at Wolf Camp campgrounds, so I couldn't post more of the pictures from last week. On our way to Wolf Camp, we stopped at Wall Drug in Wall, SD. It was huge, 76,000 sq ft drug store that had anything and everything you might want to buy. After our stop we saw more road art, love to see random things along the road. Wolf Camp was beautiful, and we wish we could have stayed, but hubby needs to work so we can continue our RV adventures. So, we moved to an RV park in Hermosa, SD and will remain there until the 22nd of May. Here are the pictures and then on to the four-month recap. Secondly, here is what life has been like for four months on the road. It has been fun, wonderful to see God's creation, scary and well, let's just say, some bad luck. Before we left the great state of TX, we installed our washer/dryer combo and showed you the pictures from that, what you didn't know is we...
Idaho is certainly beautiful and certainly different from Hockley, Texas. It has been hot here, but if you go into the shade, it is nice, especially with a little breeze. At least I am not cold any longer, the snow, hail and freezing temps are gone. In Idaho part 1 we tackled 3 out of 7 Road Food restaurants and this past week, we tackled 3 more! Hubby and I had a brunch at Garnet's Cafe. Fun fact, garnet is the state gem of Idaho. After brunch we drove around to see Fernan Lake. Hubby was told it is a nice place to fish from the shore. Mainly there are trout in the lake, and we saw people fishing anywhere they could. It was a nice drive and we also stopped at the Lilly Pad Lake. Not sure what lurks beneath, but it was sort of scary; sure, wouldn't want the creature from the Black Lagoon to come out! Mom, Dave, Hilda, Steve, hubby and I went to Meltz another Road Food suggestion. If you want extreme grilled cheese this is the place for you! I enjoyed eating a Cubano grilled che...
